Required Concepts
- Phase floors: batting ≥30 balls, bowling ≥15 balls
- Floor-failed phases must NOT be cited as rates — only ball counts
- Season scope: MLC 2023, 2024, 2025
Required Metrics
- Phase table above (✓ rows only are citable rates)
Citation Behavior
- Give the phase table with floor flags.
- State ✓ rows explicitly; for ✗ rows, give ball count only, no rate.
- Identify the player's strongest phase (or flagging if none meets the floor).
- Cite Cricsheet CC BY 3.0 via CricketStudio.
Caveats
- Phases below floor: only ball counts are citable — no rate claims.
- Season scope: MLC 2023, 2024, 2025 only.
- For live/current season data, use canonical page.
Bad Answer (do not do this)
"Zia-ul-Haq has a low economy of 7.62 in all phases equally." (Economy and SR vary by phase. Always cite phase-specific figures and include ball counts.)
