Summary In cricket it is of interest to compare bowlers on the basis of bowling average, economy rate and strike rate. In this article is presented a simple graphical display for making simultaneous comparisons on the basis of these three summary measures. The method is illustrated with some examples from Test Match and other First‐Class cricket.
