Alright folks, sat down this afternoon thinking ‘Simarjeet Singh, who’s that bowler making a bit of noise?’ Decided I needed some solid stats, not just highlights. Figured I’d track everything down like anyone else would, step by damn step.
First Stop: The Search Engine Graveyard
Obviously fired up the browser, typed in “Simarjeet Singh cricket stats”. Hit enter. Boom. Pages upon pages of stuff popped up. Clicked the top link expecting answers. Big mistake. Got hit with ads flashing like a disco ball and stats buried under mountains of clickbait. Saw mentions of ‘first-class records’ but felt like I needed a shovel to dig out actual numbers. Seriously, why do they make it so hard?
Scrolled. Refined the search. Added “player profile international”. Felt like I was cracking a code. Clicked another site – looked okay at first glance. But then the page started doing the jitterbug. Ads loading over the text, weird redirects trying to throw me off. Ended up closing that tab quick. Felt like a wild goose chase already.
Digging Through the Real Stuff (Where They Actually Have Stats)
Took a deep breath. Remembered the platforms that might actually have proper records. Landed on one of the main cricket stats hubs. Searched “Simarjeet Singh” again.
- Number of T20I matches? Had to check a dropdown menu first. Found it tucked away.
- Wickets? Took some scrolling past irrelevant graphs.
Economy rate? That one was hiding under a button labeled “Full Bowling Stats”. Of course it was.
Got what I needed finally. For T20Is:
- Matches: Played 7
- Wickets: Took 9
- Best Bowling: 4/20 (that’s a good haul!)
- Economy: 8.74 runs per over
- Average: 19.22
Clicked over to List-A stuff. Filters again. Found his profile page. List-A stats:
- Matches: 21
- Wickets: 26
- Best Bowling: 4/29
- Economy: 5.71
- Average: 26.61
The Whole Damn Hunt
Let me tell you, finding these numbers shouldn’t be such a chore. Search. Scroll. Click. Wait for bloated pages to load. Dodge pop-up ads promising instant IPL riches. Find the right filter menu. Hope the numbers are current. Rinse and repeat for each format. It’s basic stuff, really. Just want to see how many times he’s played, how many wickets taken. Simple.
Main takeaway? Getting basic player stats online feels like pulling teeth most days. You want Simarjeet Singh stats? Be prepared to wade through useless clutter and fight poorly designed sites. Save your sanity, bookmark the serious stat places and learn their quirks. The numbers are out there, they just hide them like some kind of bureaucratic puzzle.
