If you are playing Grade 1 at 14, realistically you are not going to contribute for at least 3-4 years. So both these guys would've done nothing for at least 30 games. Imagine their averages if they started playing at 18 instead of 14 and not have those years finding their feet. I reckon Oz would be near 50 and Drakeys wickets per game would be even more incredible.
Thoughts ?
Agreed, but I suppose that's where you can break it down year by year. That's why I think anything above 30 is excellent, take into account how many times people get out in 1 dayers trying to push runs along, we don't have 5 day games where you can just plod along, even our 2 dayers aren't that much longer than a one-day international.
Games played are an important stat anyway, we actually have two sets of stats, A Grade only & combined, it highlights those who like to be champions in the lower grades compared to those who are willing to put there hand up and play where they are most needed.
Grigs is working on an A Grade only record book also....just counting A grade games. Thats a good idea.
I'll dig up some more stats tonight....any requests ? We have partnership records too.
Oh great, you'll make our partnerships look like under 11's. One thing you could post, seeing that your no. 2 oval isn't the biggest going around, what is the highest team score that you guys have been involved in.
