Lets us consider previous example and see how we can compare 2 batsmen (Player A and Player B) based on mean, median, mode and standard deviation
| | Player A | Player B |
| Mean Score | 20.57 | 20.57 |
| Median Score | 20 | 24 |
| Mode Score | 20-24 | 25-29 |
| Standard Deviation of Player | 14.47 | 5.31 |
Traditionally cricket statistics will tell Player A and Player B are same because batting average (Mean score) is same. However data shows that Player B has higher Median and Mode score compared to Player A. Also Standard deviation of player A is 3 times as much as Player B, showing that Player B is more consistent.
Using these statistics we can conclude Player B is better in-terms of consistency and performance.
