By considering above factor decision may be taken to bowl first or bat first accordingly. If it is a final match in day time then batting first is good choice. In case of day night match first bowling is to be preffered.Chasing score in second batting is tougher than setting target in first batting. 3829 ODIs have been played as of right now (Jan 31, 2017). The team that won the toss won the match 1845 times, while that team lost the match 1817 times. That means there is a win/loss of 1.01541. That may seem to be a trivial difference from 1. However, ignoring ties and no results, there is a 31.589% chance that this a ratio like this or higher could occur with in a binomial distribution with p=0.5 (i.e. both teams have equal chances of winning).
