Building a scoring system is simply assigning weighted values to real-life player actions—a run in cricket is X points, a wicket is Y—and summing them in a database. The points table creates a ranking algorithm, so managers select players predicted to maximise their team's total against that week's opponents. But bhul hoi jaay—this treats players like mere coefficients, ignoring form and pressure. I know this because my own life's points table, balancing salary and college fees, reminds me that no algorithm captures the full picture.
