S Jafta betting stats, splits & projections
Batter
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 | 20 | 271 | 345 | 20.8 | 78.6 | 8.1 | 51.9 | HIGH |
| overall | TEST | 4 | 36 | 145 | 5.1 | 24.8 | 2.8 | 86.2 | MEDIUM |
| overall | T20 | 23 | 130 | 106 | 13.0 | 122.6 | 16.0 | 38.7 | LOW |
Why we like it
Splits where S Jafta scores materially faster or lasts materially longer than their own baseline in the same format.
- Opposition: Pakistan (ODI)LOW sample
102 runs off 88 balls in 4 ODI matches — strike rate 115.9 vs 78.6 overall, average 51.0 vs 20.8 overall.
Risks
Splits pointing the other way — the conditions and opponents where the record is worse than usual.
- Opposition: West Indies (ODI)MEDIUM sample
92 runs off 149 balls in 7 ODI matches — strike rate 61.7 vs 78.6 overall, average 23.0 vs 20.8 overall.
- Venue: Sir Vivian Richards Stadium, North Sound, Antigua (ODI)LOW sample
44 runs off 80 balls in 2 ODI matches — strike rate 55.0 vs 78.6 overall, not yet dismissed vs 20.8 overall.
- Phase: death (ODI)LOW sample
47 runs off 75 balls in 6 ODI matches — strike rate 62.7 vs 78.6 overall, average 47.0 vs 20.8 overall.
Against each opponent
Head-to-head record by format. Small head-to-head samples move the model very little — read the sample column before leaning on a line here.

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.
