So I am grudgingly looking at this competition, "grudgingly" since the BCCI (Indian Board) seem to be controlling cricket rather than the ICC and it kind of rubs me the wrong way... but anyway, according to the stats on their (IPLT20) website a player named Ralphi Gomez has the highest strike rate of 400, i.e. four runs every ball faced. The thing is he's only faced one ball all tournament! Should he be given that honour? I mean if I had no other knowledge about the player and only his strike rate, I might be tempted to say he can really hit.
Similarly, Chris Gayle has the second lowest bowling average having bowled only four overs all tournament...
I would establish a minimum balls faced and bowled to be considered for the various batting and bowling stats.... of course that "minimum" could also be subject to debate... oh well, bes' dem jus leave it so!
