Evaluating the Performance of Unorthodox Players in T-20 Cricket
Abstract
This study investigates the performance of unorthodox players in T20 cricket, focusing on both batsmen and bowlers. The analysis evaluates the strike rates and batting averages of unorthodox batsmen to identify those who score quickly while maintaining consistency. For bowlers, the study compares economy rates and bowling averages to assess their effectiveness in limiting runs while taking wickets. Using data collected from 2005 to 2024, the research highlights players like Suryakumar Yadav, Andre Russell, and Saeed Ajmal, who excel in their respective metrics. Additionally, the study explores correlations between batting strike rate and average, as well as bowling economy and average, revealing statistically significant relationships that provide insights into player performance.
