Some statistics which clearly show that in these two regions number of cricketers are more than footballers.

Is it a right sentence? or do I need to use only STATISTICS.

faisalkhanshow or shows?
show, because the reference is to many numbers, not to the academic discipline called "statistics".

Statistics is a difficult subject. It is very complicated.
The statistics are available if you'd like to see them.
