Esto es literal...pero se podría utilizar para tu contexto: "promedio de éxito" o, "promedio de decisiones acertadas o correctas".
Suerte!

this is a British saying
referring to cricket.
It's outdated now, but the phrase lives on. If I were you, I would leave it at "PROMEDIO", nothing else.
HTH ... :o)
