His slump was massively overplayed, 100%. He was still gunning it in t20 and ODI, just couldn't convert his 50's into 100's. Only format he's genuinly slumped in is tests.

Not sure whom that refers to, but Kohli’s problem isn’t just centuries, it’s that he’s averaging mid 20s.

He was referring to border, and while he was lean on centuries at that time, he was Rooting it up on the 50s count.

Mm it was just something I was thinking about after work, mainly cos its specifically usually mentioned as a media headline regarding the centuries. Also a reason I posted in the meaningless thread

Anyone ever made a 99 in their 99th test/ODI/T20I?

Tendulkar really missed a trick not scoring a double century in his last test match which ironically was his 200th test match.
That 'meaningless' stat would've stood until the test of time perhaps.

Tim Southee has the 15th most sixes in test cricket history. He also has the lowest average (16.13) of any player to hit 50 sixes. Afridi hit sixes the most often for any player above 50 (1.08 an innings), followed by Pant (0.98) and Cairns (0.84). Sharma is right behind Cairns though.

I think stuff like this is really more of a neat factoid than a stat, meaningless or illuminating. I doubt anyone would suggest that this fact, in itself, says much about how good David Warner is or what kind of player he is.

I'm confused. Why the difference between the top and bottom list? And the 48 reference? Or is this just to highlight the stupid part

Eh I only thought to do 50+ but cricinfo lists all from 48+ on the top averages page so I chucked it in there in case anyone was interested.
