Cool concept! But what this doesn't take into account is that in cricket, the previous balls may have set up the batsman for the dismissal delivery.

Classic example is bowling bouncers followed by a fuller delivery. In this case, just throwing a yorker on the bowling machine would probably not get the batsman out.

Hey, Thanks.

I had this in mind as well.

If you are a bit familiar with Machine Learning, what I did was train a LSTM neural network and gave it previous 3 balls and the wicket ball and trained it to generate balls in a sequence like a bowler.

I just did not post this since I am tinkering with this idea and will post it later.
