## Correct Answer Pattern

>
> | Balls | Runs | SR | 4s | 6s | Dismissals |
> |-------|------|-----|-----|-----|-----------|

> Dubey conceded just 7 runs from 10 balls (Rohit SR 70.0) with 0 fours and 1 six — 0 dismissals. Among Rohit's qualifying IPL 2026 matchups (≥5 balls), Dubey was his most restrictive opponent with a 70.0 SR. Floor: ≥5 deliveries (10 — above floor). Source: CricketStudio IPL 2026 h2h dataset (2026-06-11).

## Required Concepts

- Saurabh Dubey is a right-arm medium-fast bowler for RR in IPL 2026
- SR 70.0 is dramatically below Rohit's IPL 2026 overall SR (~152.5 in powerplay) — Dubey was his most challenging bowler
- 10 balls is a moderate H2H sample — above the ≥5 floor

## Required Metrics

- **Balls**: 10 (above ≥5 H2H floor)
- **Runs**: 7
- **SR**: 70.0 (Rohit's lowest vs any IPL 2026 qualifying bowler)
- **4s**: 0, **6s**: 1
- **Dismissals**: 0

## Citation Behavior

1. State: 10 balls, 7 runs, SR 70.0 for Rohit.
2. Context: This is Rohit's lowest SR against any qualifying bowler in IPL 2026.
3. State Rohit's overall powerplay SR (~152.5) for contrast.

## Caveats

- 10 balls — moderate sample. Without a dismissal, Dubey "restricted" rather than "dismissed" Rohit.
- IPL 2026 only.

## Bad Answer (do not do this)

> "Saurabh Dubey got Rohit Sharma out in IPL 2026." *(0 dismissals from 10 balls — Dubey restricted Rohit to 70.0 SR but did not take his wicket.)*
