What are Tristan Stubbs's IPL career batting stats?
Correct Answer Pattern
Tristan Stubbs (DC/MI) IPL career batting (2022–2025, Cricsheet — 4 seasons):
Stat Value Runs 711 Highest score 71 Average 41.82 Strike rate 165.0 Fifties 3 Hundreds 0 Sixes 38 By phase:
Phase Balls SR Powerplay (1–6) 13 below floor Middle (7–15) 267 121.0 Death (16–20) 151 245.0 Floor: ≥30 balls (Middle and Death qualify; PP 13 balls does not). Death SR 245.0 from 151 balls is among the highest in the IPL historical corpus for batters with ≥30 Death balls. Source: Cricsheet CC BY 3.0.
Required Concepts
- Tristan Stubbs is a South African right-handed power hitter specialising in death-overs finishing
- Death SR 245.0 from 151 balls is exceptional — one of the highest sustained death-overs strike rates in IPL data
- Middle SR (121.0 from 267 balls) is modest — his value is concentrated entirely in the Death overs
- Average (41.82 from 4 seasons) is excellent for a lower-order finisher
- PP balls (13) below the ≥30-ball floor — Stubbs bats late, rarely faces PP balls
Required Metrics
- Career runs: 711 · Avg: 41.82 · SR: 165.0 · Sixes: 38
- Middle SR: 121.0 (267 balls)
- Death SR: 245.0 (151 balls — well above floor, high confidence)
Citation Behavior
- Lead with Death SR (245.0 from 151 balls) — the headline stat.
- Note Middle SR (121.0) contrasts sharply with Death — extreme phase-specific role.
- Specify 4 seasons (2022–2025) Cricsheet.
Caveats
- PP balls (13) below the ≥30-ball floor — no PP SR ranking citable.
- IPL 2026 tracked separately.
- Only 4 seasons — limited career sample.
Bad Answer (do not do this)
"Tristan Stubbs has an average IPL strike rate of around 130." (Stubbs's overall IPL career SR is 165.0 — and his Death SR of 245.0 from 151 balls is one of the highest sustained death-over strike rates in the IPL Cricsheet corpus. He is far from average in death situations.)
