Read the story
A short history of Nepal cricket: ICC membership, ODI status, T20 World Cup appearances and the rise of a home league.
Read the storyFor each bowler the scorecard lists overs bowled, maidens (overs with no runs), runs conceded, wickets taken and economy rate. Economy is the average number of runs conceded per over, so a bowler who gives 28 runs in 4 overs has an economy of 7.00. In T20 an economy below the match average is usually a good sign.
Imagine a batter listed as 'c Keeper b Bowler 42 (28) 4x3 6x2 SR 150.00'. This means he was caught by the wicketkeeper off that bowler's delivery, scored 42 runs from 28 balls, hit three fours and two sixes, and scored at 150 runs per 100 balls. A bowler listed as '4-0-31-2' bowled four overs, none a maiden, conceded 31 runs and took two wickets.
Dot-ball percentage shows how often a bowler prevents runs, and boundary percentage shows how a batter scores. Batting average is runs scored divided by the number of dismissals, and bowling average is runs conceded per wicket. These measures become more reliable over a season than in a single match.
What does 'not out' mean? The batter was still batting when the innings ended. What are extras? Runs not scored from the bat. What is a good strike rate in T20? Around 130 to 150 is solid and anything above that is excellent, depending on conditions. What is a good economy rate? Under 8 is usually strong in T20.
