Three principles

01

Sample-size floors

≥30 balls faced for batting claims, ≥15 deliveries bowled for bowling claims. Sub-floor claims excluded — not hidden, excluded.

02

Date-window discipline

Every claim names its window. No "all-time" without bounds. Single-match observations are match snapshots, not trends.

03

Provenance to ball-by-ball

Every numeric claim traces to specific fixtures + a delivery count. Recompute it yourself; we publish the SQL.
