What Is The Coefficient Of Friction Of A Cricket Ball?

I’m not sure if this makes a difference, but I am interested in the coefficient of friction between a cricket ball and the air, not the cricket ball and a cricket pitch.
It doesn’t make sense to analyze a cricket ball in the air (or anything in the air) with coefficient of friction, since there is no normal force. The first approximation one typically makes is to assume a force of air resistance proportional to the speed, or the square of the speed.
