Estimate Overs Remaining in Current Innings (Test) — estimate_test_innings_overs

For Test matches, estimates how many overs might be bowled in the current innings based on typical innings lengths and declarations. This is inherently uncertain and uses heuristics.

Usage

estimate_test_innings_overs_remaining(
  wickets_fallen,
  current_score,
  overs_bowled,
  innings_number = 1,
  lead = 0,
  match_overs_remaining = 270
)

Arguments

wickets_fallen: Integer. Wickets lost so far in innings.
current_score: Integer. Runs scored in innings.
overs_bowled: Numeric. Overs bowled in innings.
innings_number: Integer. Which innings (1-4).
lead: Integer. Run lead/deficit (positive = batting team ahead).
match_overs_remaining: Numeric. Overs remaining in match.

Examples

# First innings, early in the match
estimate_test_innings_overs_remaining(
  wickets_fallen = 2, current_score = 85,
  overs_bowled = 30, innings_number = 1
)
#> [1] 90

# Third innings with large lead (likely declaration)
estimate_test_innings_overs_remaining(
  wickets_fallen = 3, current_score = 350,
  overs_bowled = 80, innings_number = 3, lead = 320
)
#> [1] 0
