Let's break down each element of the scorecard:
Name: Self-explanatory; the player's name.
How Out: Indicates the manner of dismissal. Common abbreviations include:
`b.` (Bowled) - The batsman's wicket was hit by the ball from the bowler. Example: `b. Kaleemullah` means Steven Taylor was bowled by Kaleemullah.
`c.` (Caught) - The batsman hit the ball and it was caught by a fielder. The name of the fielder is usually provided. Example: `c. Sandeep` means Monank Patel was caught by Sandeep.
`lbw` (Leg Before Wicket) - A complex rule, but essentially means the ball would have hit the wickets had it not hit the batsman's leg. Example: `lbw. Fayyaz` means Corey Anderson was out lbw to Fayyaz.
`run out` - The batsman was out of their crease when the wicket was broken with the ball.
`c & b` (Caught and Bowled) - The bowler took the catch off their own bowling. Example: `c & b Bilal` means Aaron Jones was caught and bowled by Bilal.
`not out` - The batsman was not dismissed before the end of the innings (or when the required score was reached).
Runs: The number of runs scored by the batsman.
Balls: The number of balls faced by the batsman.
4s: The number of boundaries (4 runs) hit by the batsman.
6s: The number of sixes (6 runs) hit by the batsman.
SR (Strike Rate): Runs Scored / Balls Faced 100. It indicates how quickly a batsman is scoring. A strike rate of 100 means the batsman is scoring one run per ball. A higher strike rate generally indicates a more aggressive batsman.
Example: Steven Taylor scored 32 runs off 25 balls, hitting 4 fours and 1 six. His strike rate was 128.00. This indicates an aggressive start.
Name: The bowler's name.
Overs: The number of overs bowled by the bowler. Each over consists of 6 balls.
Maidens: The number of overs bowled where the bowler conceded zero runs. This indicates tight, economical bowling.
Runs: The total number of runs conceded by the bowler.
Wickets: The number of wickets taken by the bowler.
Economy: Runs Conceded / Overs Bowled. It represents the average number of runs conceded per over. A lower economy rate is generally better, indicating economical bowling.
Example: Kaleemullah bowled 4 overs, conceded 30 runs, and took 1 wicket. His economy rate was 7.50.
`b (Byes)`: Runs scored when the ball passes the batsman and the wicketkeeper fails to collect it, allowing the batsmen to run.
`lb (Leg Byes)`: Similar to byes, but the ball hit the batsman's body (usually the leg) instead of their bat.
`w (Wides)`: Runs awarded to the batting team when a delivery is bowled too wide for the batsman to hit.
`nb (No Balls)`: Runs awarded to the batting team when the bowler bowls illegally (e.g., overstepping the crease).
The final score of the team. It includes the runs scored by the batsmen and the extras. The number of wickets lost is also shown (e.g., 7 wickets).
A chronological listing of the score at which each wicket fell. This can be used to understand the patterns of the innings. For example, if wickets are falling in quick succession, it indicates a collapse in the batting lineup.
Example: `1-35 (Steven Taylor, 4.2 overs)` means the first wicket (Steven Taylor) fell when the team score was 35, after 4.2 overs (4 overs and 2 balls) had been bowled.
By understanding how to read and interpret a cricket scorecard, you can gain a deeper appreciation for the game and its nuances, analyze player performances, and evaluate team strategies.
