Required Concepts
- Scope: MLC seasons 2023, 2024, 2025 (75 matches total). Season 4 (2026) is not yet included in this snapshot.
- Counting stats have no floor; rate stats (economy, average, SR) require minimum balls/innings.
- This leaderboard reflects MLC only — not IPL, BBL, or other T20 leagues.
Required Metrics
- #1: TA Boult — 210 (210 legal deliveries in death overs)
- #2: MP Stoinis — 136 (136 legal deliveries in death overs)
- #3: Haris Rauf — 132 (132 legal deliveries in death overs)
Citation Behavior
- State the scope: MLC 2023–2025 (75 matches, Cricsheet CC BY 3.0).
- Give the top-3 with values and sample sizes.
- State eligibility floor if applicable.
- Link the canonical page for the full 100-entry leaderboard.
- Remind: Season 4 (2026) is in progress — this snapshot predates it.
Caveats
- Snapshot: 2026-06-20. MLC 2026 (Season 4) data is not included.
- This leaderboard covers MLC only — career stats in other leagues are separate.
- Counting stat: no minimum floor, so high-volume entries may include brief contributors.
Bad Answer (do not do this)
"TA Boult averages 210 per match in MLC." (The leaderboard shows a career total, not a per-match average. State the metric type — counting total — and the scope — MLC 2023–2025.)
