The Duckworth-Lewis-Stern method: extending the Duckworth-Lewis methodology to deal with modern scoring rates
本文介绍了达克沃斯-刘易斯-斯特恩方法，用于调整板球比赛中因中断而改变的目标得分，特别针对现代高得分率（如Twenty20比赛）进行了改进，并比较了与其他调整方法的优劣。
The famous (and occasionally infamous) Duckworth-Lewis methodology for dealing with interruptions in limited overs cricket matches made its international debut in early 1997. For nearly 20 years, it has set the standard for target adjustment at nearly all levels of the game. In that time, though, it has not been static. In 2003, the Professional Edition of the method was introduced to handle changes to scoring patterns that were becoming apparent in modern cricket. We here introduce the Duckworth-Lewis-Stern (DLS) method, designed to deal with the now common extreme scoring rates seen in limited overs matches, particularly Twenty20. In addition, we outline key principles governing the structure and properties of target adjustment methods and compare DLS with other proposed procedures.
