STBR Stats

Last night saw the return of Pearson to the Popped Collars line-up. It also saw the return of our old mate Rob, who hasn't set foot on an indoor court for many years now. But because we love him so much, today's post is all about Pearson. He started his innings last night with 3 sevens in the first 2 overs, and from the sideline, we urged him to "Go for the record!".

So he did. And he got out a lot attempting it. And so the question arose... who has the lowest score while hitting the most sevens.

The new season is off to a good start in that Popped Collars have racked up 3 wins from 3 games, including a great batting performance last night to knock off last season's premiers, DILLIGAFS. But it probably shouldn't have taken such a batting performance to get there. With the ball, PC racked up all sorts of records in the category of bowling extras.

This is the second last season wrap-up post. After yesterday looking at season totals, today I'll be going through the averages - and also having a look at how people's performances have changed from season one to season two.

And now it's time to look at the statistical totals for the season as a whole. Most runs, most wickets, and all that jazz.

Following on from yesterday's match-report, today I present some specific stats, facts and figures from the match. A few records were set, or came very close to being set - mostly of the unsuccessful variety. However, several goals were achieved and milestones reached during the game to ensure that it wasn't all bad... just the result of the game was. The individual performances are shown in the "stat of the week" section on the left of the page.

The 2010 winter season came to an end last night for the Popped Collars, and so today I present the first in a series of end-of-season posts, beginning with a write-up of all the excitement from last night's game...

During the one-season lifetime of our Friday night team, GG, there was often a need for our players to compete among themselves - because the opposition were not providing any challenge. The most common game was for the batters in a particular pair to see who could hit the most sevens in their four overs.

On the other side of the coin, Popped Collars, our "pro team", are occasionally excited about (or bagging out the opposition for) playing "pro-style indoor" - that is, hitting lots of safe twos.

So today I'm going to check out the most of each scoring shot that has been achieved by a batsman in an innings.
