On accommodating the factors influencing the sports results by splitting the order effect in paired comparison experiments

The results of sport contests depend upon a lot. in this article,an attempt is made to accommodate the factors influencing the sports-results by proposing a model for paired comparison experiments that splits the order effect into its components. the proposed model can be used to separately study the effects of all the components of the order effect. we study only two components of the order effect as a special case. the maximum likelihood estimates of the worth parameters are found and the plausibility of the proposed model is checked. real dataset is collected on five top-ranked one-day-international cricket teams and is used to illustrate the estimation procedure.
