The word “strike rate” has gained significant importance in modern cricket, particularly in the shortest-game format. Twenty20 cricket is not just about racking up the run total. It is more important to have higher strike rates while scoring goals. The impact of the 30 runs scored in 12 balls is greater than that of the 50 runs scored in 41. You’ve probably noticed that many of the best players in tests and ODIs don’t get picked for the T20 squad because they need to score runs quickly enough. The Big Bash League features batters who put a premium on running the bases while maintaining a high strike rate.
