summary/comments/insights/snapshot on the data above (putting it together)

 

 

Batting 

 

Top order

 

Standouts 

• Agarwal for his high SR, batting in middle overs and v spin and relatively low dot ball percentage ... Could be better v high pace 
• Kishan for being excellent v high pace ... However, needs to improve his dot ball % 
• SKY for his balanced performance v pace (avg above 30) ... Also balanced when it comes to relying on timing and attacking shots ... However, plays 35% dot ball
• Kohli for an anchor type of role as he has the lowest dot percentage (29%) among the group. Good avg v high pace (above 30) and spin ... However, SR is middle orders can be better 

 

Bummers (from experienced players)

• KL: excellent v high pace ... however, low SR in the middle overs and v spin (may be the orange cap syndrome?)
• Rohit: high dot ball percentage (38%) and poor avg v high pace (17, the lowest for the group)

 

 

Middle order

 

Standouts

• SDP rules w/ high scoring rate per over, 6s hit and death over batting
• Pant, Samson & DK do well too in death overs 

 

 

 

Bowling

 

Spin

• Sundar has the most # of balls bowled and best economy in PP 
• Varun C, R Chahar & Chahal have above avg  low economy & SR 
• Ashwin also strikes a good balance b/w economy and strike rate

 

Pace

• Saini tries to bowl more quick deliveries than any Indian bowler ... Mr. Pace
• Krishna too bowls pacy spells 
• D Chahar and Bhuvi, as we know, have been swing kings in PP... Thakur & Mavi do well too ... followed by Siraj & Saini

Can’t wait for pujara to top all the charts after this IPL

[Global.Baba]

Please expand on the takeaways from these stats. Who looks at just bunch of numbers on charts and get excited to have a discussion?

what about First Chance Average?

[Tibarn]

Is True Dismissal Rate better when it is higher or lower? Depending on which, either Shaw/Agarwal/Kishan are the best batsmen or Rahul/Kohli

Higher the true dismissal rate, the better ... Similarly, higher the true run rate the better .... So we have to evaluate considering both, trying to find the optimized solution ... Based on how teams play their cricket, a team like Eng may prefer more Agarwals, while Ind may prefer more KLs 

 

PS the numbers are from 2016, so if the last two years are considered, SKY (and Kishan too as he played as support player early on) would probably have moved up esp. on the TRR, and maybe also TDR, to create some sort of a midpoint b/w the two extremes ... Apart from that, we may also need to look at other parameters including "clutch" abilities

India bowling is pretty solid whatever options they take.

 

Batting still can improve, death over batting is key, from stats Pandya, Pant and Samson way ahead of rest. Good thing is two are in current XI, Samson/Kishan needs come in for Iyer.

so TRR is strike rate and TDR is avg? what is the extra benefit of these new formulas here? a graph with SR and avg would have shown the same results no

TRR (run rate) and TDR (balls) are on a relative scale (the cross = say mid point of both the indicators). Therefore, for batsmen, pluses are better; for bowlers, minuses

again exactly how avg and SR work for batsmen and bowlers

There is a difference as on a relative scale, you can see the difference straightaway 

 

An avg of 40 with a SR of 150 and an avg of 38 and a SR of 158 can mean different things based on a variety of factors
