A Vala betting stats, splits & projections
All-rounder
Every figure below is counted from stored ball-by-ball deliveries — no estimates, no averages copied from elsewhere. Splits with fewer balls behind them are marked LOW sample and carry less weight in the model.
Record by format
Formats are never pooled: a twenty-over record tells you nothing about fifty-over scoring, so they are modelled and shown separately.
| overall | ODI | 37 | 1171 | 1695 | 32.5 | 69.1 | 6.5 | 56.5 | HIGH |
| overall | T20 | 36 | 802 | 678 | 27.7 | 118.3 | 13.1 | 35.5 | HIGH |
| overall | ODI | 1242 | 846 | 24 | 4.1 | 35.3 | HIGH |
| overall | T20 | 336 | 358 | 20 | 6.4 | 17.9 | MEDIUM |

By venue
Ground-by-ground record. Venue effects are real but slow to prove, so grounds with few balls are shown for transparency rather than used as evidence.

How these splits are used
The same aggregates feed the ball-by-ball simulation behind every projection: format baselines, phase scoring rates, the bowling types a batter will face and the expected attack.
