Overview

What the figures show

The IPL part of Johan Botha's career runs from 2009 to 2015: 28 innings, 409 runs, a best of 67, an average of 20.45. The record leans hard on 2011, when 230 runs, 56% of everything scored, arrived for Rajasthan Royals. 67 in 2011 remains the biggest single innings of it. Fifty has been passed once. That strike rate of 113.9 is 21.4 below the 135.37 median for the 182 batters with 300 or more IPL balls in this data. Fours and sixes account for roughly 45% of the total — 39 and 5 of them.

He has moved between franchises — Rajasthan Royals (2009–2012), Delhi Capitals (2013) and Kolkata Knight Riders (2015). Most of the runs, 335 of them, came in the Rajasthan Royals years. There is no IPL cricket on the record in 2010 and 2014.

Australia's competition adds 562 T20 runs, made in 42 matches for Adelaide Strikers, Hobart Hurricanes and Sydney Sixers. Scoring has been quicker in the Big Bash — 126.6 per hundred balls against 113.9 in the other. The averages read 20.45 and 20.07.

How this page was worked out

Where these figures come from

Sources for this profile

  • IPL figures computed from ball-by-ball records of 1,243 IPL matches.
  • Big Bash figures computed from ball-by-ball records of men’s BBL matches.
  • Date of birth, playing style and photograph come from a third-party player feed, matched by name.

How the numbers are derived

  • A wide is not a ball faced; a no ball is.
  • Byes and leg byes are not charged to the bowler; wides and no balls are.
  • Six kinds of dismissal are credited to a bowler. A run out is not one of them.
  • An average is runs over dismissals, and is left blank rather than shown as infinite.
