Khiladi Index is an attempt at creating the deepest T20 player profile anyone has ever seen, with this just being the start of what we aim to achieve. Be it on over splits or on bowling types, you wouldn’t find a better one in the mainstream market at the moment. We have gone away from the conventional splits of 1-6, 7-16, and 17-20 because we believe they tell us very little about a player. Powerplay, for ex, is split into 1-4 and 5-6 because Overs 5 and 6 are when a ‘set batter’ will be looking to take complete advantage of the powerplay or when a bowling team will be looking to close out the PP with minimum damage by bowling its best bowlers, or as we refer to them at 12th Khiladi, best PP closers.
Over No.16, for ex, hasn’t been clubbed with the death, because mainstream teams don’t see it that way. And that’s why they use spinners a lot more in 16th, as compared to 17th or 18th.
Pickup SR is one of the most interesting additions to this set of data. It tells you how well and how soon a batter starts accelerating after getting set.
