What is Bowling average?
In [[cricket]], a player's '''bowling average''' is the number of runs for each [[wicket]] taken. The lower the bowling average is, the better the [[bowler]] is performing. It is one of a number of [[statistics]] used to compare bowlers. It is not used for bowlers who have not played a lot. George Lohmann (2 June 1865 – 1 December 1901) holds the record for the lowest average in [[Test cricket]], having claimed 112 wickets at an average of 10.75 runs per wicket. <ref>{{Cite web|title=ICC and FICA launch Cricket Hall of Fame|url=https://www.espncricinfo.com/story/icc-and-fica-launch-cricket-hall-of-fame-385019|access-date=2023-04-10|website=ESPNcricinfo|language=en}}</ref> == References == {{reflist}} [[Category:Cricket]]
