sammys econ is the bes. sammy is the best bowler so far.

but the implied workload for the desired benefit is beyond human endurance were it required of sammy every game westindies played.

too much even for one game. moreso given the fact that he is captain

someone will have to step up to share the econ rate when it is necessary to shut down sides..like in this game here

but this linear game sbowling allocation computation is at best a quideline.

its results are pure abstraction and relative to onely one set of circumstances...while each and every test that has been played, and all that are to be played in future have had, and will feature their own set of unique conditions and circumstance,s which will have to be taken into consideration by all concerned at the time, the moment, to produce unique results that no comuptation could figure before hand

brilliant as deh may be I dont see them as useful to any sigfnificant degree. deh are great mental exercises for the mathetically capable.

(a fella by the name of John Goddard, westindies captain, once had ramadim bowl 98 overs in a test match innings...a world record I suppose that will never be broken. Ramadin was never the same again)
