Reading this comparison
A highlighted value is the better one on that row — higher for runs and averages, lower for bowling averages, economy and dot-ball percentage. Highlighting is a reading aid, not a verdict: a better average over 12 innings is not evidence of a better player.
Sample sizes are shown in the header. Where a player has never been dismissed, the average is an em dash rather than an infinite value.
This comparison combines all formats. A Test average and a T20 average measure different things, so read a combined figure with that in mind. Full methodology
