๐จ DID YOU KNOW ๐จ
Sachin Tendulkar faced 848 bowlers in international cricket and 847 of them conceded at least one run to him.
The only bowler to dismiss Sachin without giving away a single run is Steve Smith.
@Winden1953 You mentioned above that RAAR calculates which knock will help the team better when RAAR doesn't do that, that was the point. RAAR only says what a player did "individually" better/worse than an average player. You can look at it one way but the unilateral interpretation is wrong
@Winden1953 Sehwag's SR is still exceptional. 5th highest overall (min 2k runs), 2nd highest among openers (only behind abhishek) even after 10 years of his retirement. Anyway the point still remains, RAAR has limitations and it can make an Urvil P's campaign better than a S iyer's campaign.
@Winden1953 I thought you considered abhishek as the best T20 batsman...or is there a mistake?Can it be that there is a change in your ranking system?
I mentioned sehwag who has almost 3K runs,compared to him abhishek has less runs.Or can it be the same excuse that the take was a ragebait?
@Winden1953 You're at 2nd point now
Suddenly the sample size starts to matter when it comes to RGS. Its not surprising coming from you.
But RAA is "one of the best" metric, what is the need of WAA?
@Winden1953 There are only handful of batters with 5K mark in the tournament. Thats one way to avoid the question.
sehwag has almost 3K runs, whats your opinion on him?
@Winden1953 Source is espncricinfo and cricketingview. Both have their differences but they are similar in one aspect, both fail to provide information on how the knock affects the team. You didn't answer my question btw, is manan vohra a better IPL batter than RGS or not?

@Winden1953@kannhwald20963@Kushacritic Urvil P had a higher RAAR than S iyer in IPL 2026 when both played majority of their innings chasing 160 or more. And I didn't say Manan vohra has higher "RAAR" than RGS but "RAA", both are different models. Here is vohra in full glory, quite ahead in "one of the best" metric
@Winden1953@Adibhai12345@kannhwald20963@Kushacritic The above explaination does not provide why 10(5) cannot have a higher RAA than 70(40) tho,besides it explaining how "RAAR" operates. Also if RAA is "one of the best metric" then that would make manan vohra a better batter than RGS. Manan has higher RAA/100b than RGS in IPL.
