CWC 2015 - The BeeHive Technology - Pitch Map

#CWC15

The #PitchMap, or popularly known as #Beehive, is a fantastic innovation that shows variations in bowling lengths, bounce, trajectory of balls delivered by bowlers.

Shows up as a graphical pitch with the short, good and full length delivery zones, the hives in honeycomb or balls indicate where the bowler has pitched the ball throughout an innings, or at a particular batsman or left/right handed batsmen, etc. 

White blinking dots indicate wicket taking deliveries
Yellow dots generally indicate boundaries
Green dots generally indicate sixers
Red dots generally indicate dot/maiden balls (*Color coding can change from tournament)

The beehive is used to analyze if a bowler has been consistent enough? what areas has he captured maximum wickets? which areas has he been taken for most runs by batsmen? is he bowling enough dot balls? is there a specific plan at the certain batsman? The analytics possibilities are numerous.

Team strategists use this data for planning innings, bowler spells and tactical decision making in matches. All in all, a wonderful technology used to enhance viewer experience and assist sportspersons to perform better!
