How To Check Player Battle Records In 2025

So you might have probably heard people saying “Which bowler owns which batsman?” Today I’ll show you how to check Player Battle Records in 2025. That way you know who’s got whose number—and you can build your Dream11 team like a pro.

What Are Player Battle Records?

Player Battle Records are like little scorecards.
They show you head‑to‑head stats between one bowler and one batsman.

• Times Faced: How many times they’ve met in real matches.
• Dismissals: How often the bowler has got that batsman out.
• Runs Scored: Sometimes you get to see how many runs the batsman made against that bowler.

Think of it like two rivals facing off. You want to see who usually wins that face‑off. That’s all it is.

Why You Should Check Them

1. Spot Weaknesses
   If Spinner X always gets Batsman Y out, now you know. You can skip Y or pick X.
2. Balance Your Team
   No one wants their star batsman to face his nemesis bowler. That’s a flop waiting to happen.
3. Win Grand Leagues
   In big contests, everyone picks the big names. But the smart ones use these battle records to gain an edge.

Knowing these little secrets can save you a ton of points.

Who Dismisses Right‑Hand Batsmen?

Right‑hand batsmen (RHB) often struggle against left‑arm spinners. Here are the three main types:

• Left‑arm Orthodox Spinners
  They turn the ball away from the right‑hander. That means more catches at slip or bat‑pad LBWs.
• Left‑arm Chinaman (Wrist Spin)
  They spin the ball into the bat. That can trap the batsman LBW or bowl him through the gate.
• Left‑arm Wrist Spinners
  They toss in top‑spinners that skid straight on. Keeps the batsman guessing and often beats the inside edge.

When a right‑hander is on strike, captains bring in one of these bowlers. They’ve got the edge most times.

Who Dismisses Left‑Hand Batsmen?

Left‑hand batsmen (LHB) have one main nemesis: right‑arm off‑break spinners.

• Right‑arm Off‑break Spin
  The ball turns into the left‑hander’s pads. LBW chance goes up, and edges catch the keeper or silly point.
• Right‑arm Arm Ball
  It skids on straight. The batsman might miss it thinking it will spin. That can bowl him or hit the pads.

Teams often bowl off‑breaks to lefties because it sniffs out errors and creates chances.

How to Use Battle Records in Your Picks

Here’s how you turn that data into magic for your Dream11 team:

1. Pick Your Batsman
   Say you want to pick a right‑hander. First, check which left‑arm spinner troubles him most.
2. Decide Your Bowler
   Maybe you decide you want the left‑arm spinner. Then see which right‑hander he owns.
3. Avoid Clash Combos
   Don’t pick the right‑hand batsman and the spinner who always dismisses him. One will flop.
4. Balance It Out
   Either back the batsman’s side or the bowler’s side in a single combo. Not both.

This little trick keeps you from self‑sabotaging your own picks.

Left‑Hand Batsman	He’s in form and off‑spinner hasn’t beaten him lately.	The off‑spinner has LBW’d him multiple times.
