A batter who scores four singles in an over is often batting more aggressively than one who manages to nick a boundary and defends the other five shots. I like this stat because it gives an indicator of batting aggression independent of Strike Rate. We can deduce that he also scored another 7 runs (31 – 24) from the remaining 7 shots (12 – 5), all singles.
Adding the boundary shots together gives us 24 runs from 5 shots. In the scorecard above, the opening batsman Alex Hales scored 31 in 12 Scoring Shots, including 3 fours and 2 sixes. I believe it stands for “Scoring Shots” – ie, the number of shots from a given batter which yielded a run. If anyone thinks of another one, please leave a note in the comment box below.Īh, I managed to find some FOX scorecards on their Australian website. These are all the abbreviations I know of that are used reoccuringly enough.

E economy (runs plus extras allowed per over).CH / SLC left armed wrist spinner (ch = chinaman).SLA left armed finger spinner (sla = slow left arm).LB right armed wrist spinner (lb = leg break).OB right armed finger spinner (ob = off break).Those who distinguish these are, in my opinion, splitting hairs. On some player profiles you will see the construction RMF or LMF, which signifies the same thing as RFM and LFM. ct and b or c and b caught and bowled (by the same member of the fielding side) the abbreviations + and & are often substituted for “and”.Types of dismissal are usually noted in lowercase.
