 Done. Request earlier suspended due to the 2011-12 Commonwealth Bank Series, but now it is over and Shaun Marsh has not played any matches in that series, so I have created the graph. jfd34 (talk) 10:12, 28 May 2012 (UTC)

What about an ODI graph :) --Extra 999 (Contact ^me) 10:16, 25 January 2012 (UTC)

I have created an SVG version of the first graph (showing career batting average) at File:MS Dhoni test batting career v1.svg jfd34 (talk) 12:06, 28 May 2012 (UTC)

Is svg better than png for graphs? If so, we can use it in the article. extra999 (talk) 02:10, 29 May 2012 (UTC)

Yes, as it can be scaled to any arbitary size without considerable loss of quality. And I have already replaced it in the article. jfd34 (talk) 04:18, 29 May 2012 (UTC)

Comment: Cork is more notable as a bowler. And if you look at his stats, he averages less than 20. Not sure his batting graph should be of importance. Are you asking for a bowling figure graph? --Extra 999 (Contact ^me) 08:31, 17 January 2012 (UTC)

• Comment: Dang, didn't see the 30+ average part. Only requested it to make his achievements section look more "pretty"! A bowling graph would be good, but no rush! AssociateAffiliate (talk) 16:55, 17 January 2012 (UTC)
  • The 30+ average is a guideline, not a requirement. For example, Glenn McGrath's batting improved markedly over his career and a batting graph with average would show that much better than simply text. I don't know whether there are other reasons to believe that Cork's batting graph would be a valuable to the article, beyond prettiness (which is itself a consideration) but if you want to add any thoughts, that would be welcome.  :) EdChem (talk) 04:35, 18 January 2012 (UTC)
    • For sure, this is no requirement it's written, these guidelines are not applied strictly. It's only to notify users that this may not be very useful for a player known for his bowling abilities. No problem in making it of course. I have also requested a few users about this project and invited them to join. --Extra 999 (Contact ^me) 09:36, 19 January 2012 (UTC)

Test batting career of Ian Bell as at 22 January 2012 with career batting average (left and centre - different vertical scales) and 10 innings moving average (right)

In his first three test innings, Bell scored 70, 65*, and 162* resulting in a batting average of 297 runs. I have prepared one version with this test average on scale and one with his high score of 235 runs used to select a vertical scale. I leave it to Extra999 who requested these graphs to choose which to use. I note that the 10 innings moving average illustrates well Bell's strong batting performance since 2010, also visible in the gradual increase in his batting average from 40 to 48 over the same period. EdChem (talk) 12:21, 22 January 2012 (UTC)

I knew you got to have these problems when dealing with his graph :) Although I have added the File:Ian Bell test batting career v1a.png since it displays the full average line. --Extra 999 (Contact ^me) 16:01, 22 January 2012 (UTC)

And tell you a fact, Bell's average has been the fifth highest any time for any player. --Extra 999 (Contact ^me) 16:07, 22 January 2012 (UTC)

I didn't know that. I'm glad you've found one of the graphs useful for his article. EdChem (talk) 00:15, 23 January 2012 (UTC)

Also Bell's ODI graph can be valueable, since he has played over 100 innings :) --Extra 999 (Contact ^me) 08:35, 23 January 2012 (UTC)

I was thinking the same.  :) EdChem (talk) 09:32, 23 January 2012 (UTC)

One Day International batting career of Andrew Strauss as at 23 January 2012 with career batting average (left) and 10 match moving average (right)

Note: Sources differ as to the number of matches where Strauss has been not out. The match against South Africa held on 11 February 2005 has been excluded along with all other games in which he did not bat as he did not face any delivery. It is recorded as 0* by Cricinfo, however, presumably because he was at the non-strikers end of the pitch when the innings was completed. His score of 74* in the 12 April 2006 match against India has been counted as a 'not out' innings as he was not dismissed, but his innings actually ended when he retired hurt. EdChem (talk) 00:42, 24 January 2012 (UTC)

Whatever controversies out there, I think we should give Cricinfo data, since that is the reference we have. --Extra 999 (Contact ^me) 09:06, 24 January 2012 (UTC)

I don't agree because I think a score of 0* implies that the player took strike and faced a delivery. He never faced a delivery in the Feb '05 game, even if he did take the field and was at the non-strikers end, so I am of the view that he did not bat. I left the 'not out' in the Cricinfo data used for Strauss' summary tables but the batting graph shows innings in which he batted and I don't think he batted in this case. You are, of course, welcome to request the views of others and I will follow consensus.  :) EdChem (talk) 10:52, 24 January 2012 (UTC)

Perhaps I disagree now, because 0* means that a player has come out to bat, or if a player is legitimate to bat and faced a delivery. Many a times scoreboard reads: Example run out 0(0 balls). Suppose, if it is the 49.4th ball of an ODI innings, and he is run out at the non-striker's end. The new player will come out to have a run for the last ball, however on the non-striker's end. This means that the player is still legitimate to bat, if the last ball is a no ball, and a single is taken. The scoreboard only reads like tat because the player is legitimate to bat, he can even be out even if has not faced a delivery. Have to take other's experience, now. --Extra 999 (Contact ^me) 11:24, 24 January 2012 (UTC)
