Calculate a bowling economy rate and the runs conceded per spell.
Economy rate measures restriction while bowling average measures wicket-taking effectiveness. A bowler can be economical without taking wickets, which suits limited-overs cricket but not the longer format. Which metric matters depends on the format entirely: economy wins short games while average wins long ones.
