Batting Data Base
Batting Index (BTI) :
The Batting Index is the limited over batting average for the current players. The BTI for
the players are given below.
BTI
Ganguly
43
Tendulkar 43
Dravid 34
Yuvraj Singh 30
Robin Singh 26
Kambli 40
Sriram
25
Dahiya 15
Jadeja 35
Azharuddin 38
To summarize, the Batting Index
is an indication of how many runs a batsman is expected to score off a standard bowling
attack. The Batting Index ranges from 47 for Viv Richards to 5 for McGrath. (Bradman
stands supreme at 70).
Quick Scoring Index (QSI)
:
It is obvious that in limited over cricket, it is not sufficient to just score runs but
score the runs quickly. We have developed a Quick Scoring Index for each batsman. It
represents the average number of runs expected to be scored in 6 balls by the batsman over
his entire career. The QSI for the players are given below.
Ganguly
4.0
Tendulkar 5.2
Dravid 3.5
Yuvraj Singh 4.5
Robin Singh 4.5
Kambli 4.0
Sriram
3.7
Dahiya 3.0
Jadeja 4.5
Azharuddin 4.5
(Only Jessop, who played
in the early 1900s and is acknowledged by almost everyone as the greatest attacking
batsman of all time, has a QSI of 6.0. Amongst contemporary batsmen, only Jayasuriya has
the skills to come to this level. Richards finished his career with an amazing strike rate
of 5.5 rpo.).
