BATTING STATISTICS
BATTING AVERAGEBatting Average = No of runs scored / No of matches ( outs).
Example :
Batting Average = 46.2.
=> For every match the batsman scores an average of 46.2 runs.Lets say if a batsman has an batting average of 46.2 with 100 matches played, then
=> 46.2 = No of runs scored / 100.
=> No of runs scored = 46.2
* 100 = 4620 runs in 100 matches.
Note :Here if a batsman is not out then that match will not be added, but runs scored by him are added to calculate the batting average.
BATTING STRIKE RATE
Batting Strike Rate = 102.0
=> For every 100 balls the batsman scores 102 runs.
Similarly if batting strike rate is 62.0
=> For every 100 balls the batsman scores 62 runs.
Batting Strike Rate = No of runs scored / No of balls played.
Lets say a batsman has scored 40 runs of 80 balls.Now
=> strike rate = 40 runs * 100 / 80 balls * 100 = 50 runs / 100 balls.
=> A batsman is scoring at a strike rate of 50 at the rate of 100 balls.
Note :The greater the strike rate, the greater the good striker of the ball.
EXTRAS
LEG BYES :The runs which are obtained by the ball not hitting the bat, gloves and hitting any part of the body. Those runs are considered as Leg Byes.
BYES :The runs which are obtained by the ball not hitting the bat nor gloves nor any part of the body. In fact if the ball leaves away from the body with out any contact. Those runs are considered as Byes.

When calculating a batting strike rate, do no balls count as balls faced? Wikipedia says yes, but I can't believe it...
