Rage analysis (bowling)

As a continuation from the previous post, we're now looking at which bowlers recover best from a bad delivery. What are people's stats on the ball after they get hit for seven?

There's some very interesting results here. First and foremost, it provides proof of something that we all knew already... The Brage doesn't work with bowling. After being hit for seven, Brad's average runs per ball is around 1.5x worse. It also shows that my theory of Sanjit's ability to recover after a bad ball only applied to batting.

The numbers that really stand out, however, come from X and G. They both have a negative average runs per ball after being hit for a so-called "maximum".

Don't foget, though, that the ball after a seven will usually be bowled to the opposite batsman to the one who hit the seven. So maybe this is saying something about the psychological factors surrounding watching your batting partner do well. Hmmm, sounds a bit deep and meaningful for this blog... so instead, here's a table of numbers:

Name	Runs/Ball overall	Runs/Ball after7	Compare (%)	Compare (+/-)
Xavier	0.58	-0.81	-139.4	-1.40
Gareth	0.75	-0.17	-23.2	-0.92
Andy	0.82	0.33	40.8	-0.48
Julian	1.24	1.14	92.2	-0.10
Rian	0.81	0.75	93.1	-0.06
Brad	0.95	1.38	145.4	+0.43
Sanjit	0.98	1.69	173.4	+0.72
Jake	0.98	1.71	174.1	+0.73
