Is the Duckworth-Lewis method as complicated as it seems? No, says Frank Duckworth, one half of the old firm. GS Vivek of the Indian Express caught up with him and Duckworth goes on to reveal that the method of calculation is likely to change to suit the trends of the modern game.
Frank and Tony are great friends who live 60 miles from each other; occasionally they travel halfway to a pub to share a pint of beer and talk. It’s not casual conversations; it’s calculative to the core and serious.
Siddhartha Vaidyanathan too caught up with Duckworth for an informal chat in Bristol over a week ago.
