Sources & methodology
- Derived from the canonical IPL historical SETU snapshot — ball-by-ball records sourced from Cricsheet under CC BY 3.0. 1,242 matches across 19 seasons (2007/08 → 2026).
- Sample-size floor (doctrine §3.1): No minimum ball-count floor — all sub-10 dismissals included. Claims below this floor are excluded.
- IPL 2026: live season data surfaced separately at /season/ipl-2026. Some aspects (fastest-fifty, fastest-hundred, most-maidens, hat-tricks) are IPL 2026 only.
