Why Is Bowling So Important In T20 Cricket?
On this episode of STRIKE RATE: THE CRICKET ANALYTICS PODCAST we talk about how important bowling is in T20 franchise cricket. The opening round of the IPL brutally exposed Delhi Capitals and Royal Challengers Bengaluru, as their underinvestment in bowling came back to bite them against cleverer IPL opponents.
We talk about the key factors that go into this, how teams need to think about different combination of bowlers and set some benchmarks for what good looks like in the IPL and other franchise tournaments.
How does spin and seam factor into the equation? Are wickets or economy more important? Why is bowling more dependable than batting?
