CRICHQ – Stats System Why should MCA switch to CricHQ? • Affordable digitization of the scoring and stats system to take us to the next level (or get us up to the current level) • Price at entry point is relatively cost neutral for MCA ($350) • Migration from Resultsvault to CRICHQ will be covered to the best possible extent • Free app to dynamically score live from the ground that enables live score updates • Gets rid of significant paper work with scorecard (GO GREEN!!!!!) • Gives us the framework to use Professional Cricketer’s Association (PCA) system of calculating season MVP, easier to manage awards etc. • Integrated with Duckworth and Lewis method and other advanced features. • Gives access to advanced methods of analyzing scores on the app (manhattan plots and run rate worms etc) • Framework, access and visibility to the tool that is widely used by several associations across the US and the world. Were other solutions considered? • Yes – from a combination of price, completeness and value for money point of view, this was the most complete package available to us.
