In this episode, Matt dives into the numbers from the last 3 seasons of county cricket to work out who the best bowler is.
Isn't it just the guy who takes the most wickets? Well, not according to this. Also, Matt uses a brand new statistical model to work out who the rising star bowlers under the age of 23 are.
Who do you think is the best bowler in county cricket? Did anyone not make the top 15 that you think should have done? Let me know in the comments and on social media @forwarddefpod.
