What the stats suggest
Patterns from completed matches
AVG 1ST INNINGS
188
Completed matches: 5
Insight
Competitive scoring sample
The first-innings average sits in a workable middle zone, which suggests the ground has supported competitive totals without being one-paced.
1ST INNINGS RANGE
173 - 200
Low: 173 • High: 200
Insight
Tighter scoring band
The first-innings sample has stayed inside a relatively compact scoring band, which points to a more stable venue pattern so far.
190+ 1ST INNINGS
3
60% of completed matches
Insight
High totals show up often
A meaningful share of completed first innings have crossed 190, so substantial starting totals are a recurring part of this venue history.
150 OR BELOW
0
0% of completed matches
Insight
Few lower-end totals
No completed first innings have finished at 150 or below, so the venue has largely stayed clear of the lower-end band in this sample.
RESULT SPLIT
60% Bat 1st
40% 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
91 balls
Avg successful chase: 92 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
47% Fast / 53% Slow
Fast: 18 • Slow: 20
Insight
Balanced wicket share
The wicket share is fairly even, so the venue sample does not show one bowling type dominating dismissals.
50+ SCORES
10
30+: 7 • 100+: 1
Insight
Useful batting contributions present
The venue has produced a visible set of 50-plus scores, even if truly massive individual innings have not dominated the sample.
