In this article, I am continuing on the
simulation methodology used to generate the daily predictor. The first 10
matches have been completed and this article looks at the predictions and
actual results. I have also selected and presented an actual simulated match
result which is very close to the actual match scores. Readers should remember
that these matches were simulated and sent to CastrolCricket couple of days before the actual match
was played. It should also be remembered that the simulation of the
selected was done pre-match. Only the selection was done post-match.
