We know that bowlers play a crucial role in cricket. Based on the performance of the bowlers, the scoreboard varies. The bowler should show different variations in phase, making it difficult for the batsman to predict the ball. The number of wickets bowled by the bowler, the number of dot balls, and the number of maiden overs. The best bowling figure of the bowler in an innings tells the bowler’s performance in a match and also reveals what the bowler is capable of.
