What the stats suggest
Patterns from completed matches
AVG 1ST INNINGS
231
Completed matches: 3
Insight
Lower scoring sample
The completed first-innings sample sits on the lower side for this format, so this ground has not consistently produced big starting totals.
1ST INNINGS RANGE
195 - 267
Low: 195 • High: 267
Insight
Wide scoring spread
The spread between the lowest and highest first innings is large, so this venue has already produced very different scoring environments.
300+ 1ST INNINGS
0
0% of completed matches
Insight
Big first innings rare
None of the completed first innings have crossed 300, so very large first-innings totals have not been a regular part of this sample.
250 OR BELOW
2
67% of completed matches
Insight
Lower scores occur often
A sizeable share of completed first innings have ended at 250 or below, so lower starting totals are not unusual here.
RESULT SPLIT
67% Bat 1st
33% Bat 2nd • 0% NR
Insight
Bat-first results lead
Batting first has produced the better share of results in this sample, although the no-result percentage still forms part of the venue record.
CHASE COMPLETION
270 balls
Avg successful chase: 270 balls
Insight
Chases have room to spare
Successful chases at this venue have often been completed with some room left, rather than only in last-over finishes.
WICKET SPLIT
64% Fast / 36% Slow
Fast: 27 • Slow: 15
Insight
Fast bowlers lead
Fast bowlers account for the larger wicket share in this sample, which gives pace the stronger dismissal footprint at this ground so far.
100+ SCORES
1
50+: 4
Insight
Centuries are in play
The venue sample includes century-level innings, so batters have shown they can convert starts into major ODI contributions here.
