Tailenders

Bob Bamber · 28-11-2004, 08:47 PM

I was playing Cricket 2004 with austrailia and had Kenya on the ropes at 69/8 off about 38 overs. It took me 86 Overs to get those last three wickets. There no 11 got 92. on the odd occasion tail enders score quite big. 4th Wisden test England Vs West Indies in the summer.Giles 54 Hoggard 38 Harmison 36 Anderson 12. And the aussies v new zealand. For BLIC Swordfish need to rectify this problem.

Rectify what? That they get big scores? Sorry you've confused me!

It just seemed that the batting ability between the openers and the tailenders hasn't been that great. Sure tailenders on the right wicket get high scores but the gap needs to be a bit bigger.

Ah i'm with you now! Yeh, they do seem to get anythin between 10-40 too often. Can't imagine Glenn McGrath getting a fifty in the majority of his innings somehow!

You never know after that innings v NZ at the 'Gabba.

I'd guess it would be a perecentage thing - a 'how likely would this player be to score big'.

I'll enquire as to whether we have the stat for this or something similar. We'd obviously have the batting stat but this is slightly different.
