Strike Rate: The Cricket Analytics Podcast
Sports:Cricket
On this episode of STRIKE RATE: THE CRICKET ANALYTICS PODCAST we discus all the key batting metrics in T20 cricket. In part 1 we cover some of the basic stats you will find on Cricinfo before the discussion branches out during the episode.
Is batting average a useful metric in T20s, or may we want to consider balls per dismissal?
How influential is a player's strike rate, and what other factors should you consider when looking at that number?
And which famous T20 batter is costing his team 1.5 runs before he has even faced 5 deliveries?
The examples Jack uses in the show are taken from a database of all major T20 competitions over the last 3 years, excluding international cricket. You can find most of this information on Cricmetric, or you can play around with the raw ball by ball data here (with thanks to Himanish!).
Jack also mentions a university paper he read on the podcast, if you want to have a read you can find that here.
