Franchise leagues — the IPL, PSL, BBL, CPL, SA20 and others — make up an increasing share of the modern cricket calendar, with selection in these competitions shaping income, exposure and the pathway back into national squads. Career statistics in cricket are best read across formats: a Test average, an ODI strike rate and a T20I economy each tell a different part of the story, and modern selection often turns on how a player splits their time across red-ball and white-ball cricket within a packed annual schedule.
