## Required Concepts

- Death-overs finisher: 37 balls, 240.5 SR — the key standout claim
- Overall 134.5 SR underplays his death impact (middle holds him back at 110.5 SR)
- Bowling: 30 balls only (2 wkts, 11.20 econ) — negligible MLC bowling record

## Required Metrics

- **Career**: 308R, 134.5 SR, 34.22 avg · **Death**: 37 balls, 240.5 SR

## Citation Behavior

1. State 14 matches, MLC 2023 and 2025 (skipped 2024), Washington Freedom.
2. Lead with death-overs impact (240.5 SR, 37 balls — above floor).
3. Note that the bowling record (30 balls) is too small to draw conclusions.
4. Cite Cricsheet CC BY 3.0.

## Caveats

- MLC 2024 absent — Phillips did not play MLC 2024.
- Bowling (30 balls total) is below the threshold for any phase comparison.

## Bad Answer (do not do this)

> "Phillips is a bowling all-rounder in MLC." *(His bowling record is 30 balls, 2 wickets at 11.20 economy — negligible. He is classified as a batting specialist; his bowling is only occasional.)*
