V NIkolova 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.

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.

Bowling
| Serbia | T20 | 46 | 75 | 0 | 9.8 | — | LOW |
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.
| Lisicji Jarak Cricket Ground | T20 | 6 | 79 | 104 | 13.2 | 76.0 | 9.6 | 54.8 | LOW |

Conditions vary more by country than by ground; this is the broader pitch-and-conditions view.

By match phase
Powerplay, middle overs and death. Phase splits drive the simulated scoring rate ball by ball.
| powerplay | T20 | 18 | 105 | 126 | 8.8 | 83.3 | 10.3 | 55.6 | MEDIUM |
| middle | T20 | 8 | 95 | 107 | 15.8 | 88.8 | 11.2 | 52.3 | LOW |
Against pace and spin
Record against each bowling type faced, rolled up when a finer category has too few balls.
| PACE | T20 | 19 | 103 | 154 | 6.9 | 66.9 | 6.5 | 59.7 | MEDIUM |
| UNKNOWN | T20 | 8 | 52 | 47 | 17.3 | 110.6 | 17.0 | 46.8 | LOW |

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.
