In limited-overs cricket, the strike rate is a very crucial factor for any batsman. It denotes the average number of runs scored per 100 balls by a batsman. Since ODIs and T20Is consist of limited numbers of deliveries, batsmen have to maintain a good strike rate while batting. If they score runs at a lesser strike rate, it could affect the total runs piled up on the scoreboard as well as put the pressure on the other batsmen.

List A cricket is a popular platform to analyze a batsman’s performance in limited-overs cricket. List A cricket includes matches with One Day Internationals and various other domestic matches in which the number of overs per innings stands between 40 to 60 overs. Some international matches between countries that have not got an ODI status by ICC also come under List A cricket.
