ड and ट separate, Tamil has only ட
त and द separate, Tamil has only த

@exceedingxpuns I did not know this. Wait so like does tamil not have different letters for ‘da’ and ‘ta’?
Kada (shop), poda, etc. are they written with the same ‘ta’ letter?

TIL that it’s spelt as ‘Itli’ ij tamizh, always heard ‘idli’ growing up, so I just assumed for that to be the case

In TN, it is referred to as Itli. That is how it is spelt in Tamizh. There is nothing wrong in it. It is actually dosai for us. But once you go up north it becomes Dosa. And nobody says how hard to it is to pronounce it correctly. It is just a dialect.

Nah. What these weights show is how difficult it is to perform well in a league relative to others, which has to do with how good other batters are in the league. Since we are talking in relative performance terms, factors like pitch, bowling quality etc matter less. For a bowling quality analysis, we'll have to do something similar with bowlers instead of batters.

No surprise here! Imran Tahir is the slowest(by time) to reach 500 runs ListA runs.
Rahul@exceedingxpuns
Imran Tahir completed 500 List A runs on March 11, 2026, just shy of 28 years since his debut on March 15, 1998. 10,223 days to be exact – in other words one run every 20 days or so, on average.
