Gone are the days when a batting average of 40 marks you out as a good player. With so many stats at our fingertips, the teams try and break through the sea of data to come up with a new standard for batting and bowling statistics that doesn't need a maths degree to understand.
Specifically David Hinchliffe chats to Mark Garaway and Sam Lavery about: Strike Rate, Runs per Scoring Shot, Scoring Ball Percentage, Scoring Areas (where runs are scored and conceded and at what times), and Quality of Contact (how often a bowler beat the bat).
Are these elements that you can start counting, tracking analysing and reporting? Listen to the show to work out if they beat the old average adage.
Plus we look at bowling speed with questions on moving up to 140kph and what pace a spinner should bowl.

The Nick Compton Batting Masterclass: World Class Defence
This week, we had a batting masterclass from Somerset and England's Nick Compton.
Nick is someone who I have watched and admired for a number of years and a few weeks back he agreed to come in and work with our cricketers. His story reminded me of the session that we did with Kevin Pietersen. Their batting style of play may be different, yet their approaches to challenge, their drive, their hard work, honesty and willingness to share information with others was identical.
Here is what we learned from that masterclass.
Who Knew it Could be Fun Warming Up for Cricket?
Let's be frank, warming up is boring.
Essential for injury prevention yes, but it's not the reason you picked up a bat and ball. So if we can come up with ways to make warming up both fun and functional, we are winning at life. And if there is one coach who knows his way around fun and function, it's Iain Brunnschweiler; author of the Inspired Cricket Manual.
Here's an example of what we mean:
