Ball 3 (Wicket 1): 74 km/h classic orthodox stock ball. Pitched 4.8m on off-stump channel, drifted 18.4cm in air, turned 4.6° off the turf to clip top of off-stump!

Aerodynamic & Turn Metrics

Lateral Air Drift 18.4 cm Away from RHB batter
Turf Turn Angle 4.6° Bites sharply off pitch
Bounce Height 0.68 m Hits at 68% stump mark
Flight Hang Time 0.69 s Revs in flight: ~22.4
Dismissal Threat Assessment
Hits top of off-stump
Air drift draws the right-hander forward into defensive drive; vicious bite off the good length beats the outside edge.
Magnus Drift Vector: Negative X (Left to Right)
Rotational Seam Tilt: 42° Forward-Right
Stump Trajectory Target: Off & Middle Stump
Estimated Dismissal Prob: High (Bowled / Edge)
Putthawong holds one of the lowest T20I bowling economies in modern cricket history (sub 4.10 RPO) alongside over 80+ wickets, leading Thailand's surge into ICC global qualifiers.
