[00:00:00]Hey everyone, welcome back to the channel.

[00:00:02]You know the IPL 2026 qualifier 2 is tonight, GT versus RR, and the hype is absolutely insane. Everyone is debating who's going to the final, but instead of guessing, I decided to let Python do the heavy lifting. I just finished putting together a custom prediction model, and it's honestly super cool. Here is the best part. I didn't use any heavy AI or complex machine learning libraries. I kept it strictly to core Python. I used dictionaries to map out the historical head-to-head stats and lists to track the recent bowling and batting form of every key player. The heart of the project is a custom function I wrote called normalize. It takes all those messy raw stats like venue records and playoff pressure and converts them into a clean weighted percentage. It's basically pure data science logic turned into a win probability score. After I ran the simulation, the model spat out the numbers. Rajasthan Royals at 59.4% and GT at 40.6%.

[00:01:00]Now look, we all know cricket is pure chaos. One bad over or a brilliant catch can flip these stats in seconds, so this is just a fun look at the numbers. But the code is currently backing the Royals.

[00:01:12]So what do you think? Did the math get it right, or is GT going to prove the code wrong tonight? Drop your winner in the comments below. If you're into mixing cricket with a bit of coding, make sure you're subscribed to Data Science and AI/ML Hub. Let's see how this plays out. Thanks for watching, and I'll see you in the next one.
