Elijah Walsh
The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 90 balls (SR 56), then 50 to 100 in just 74 (SR 68) — more than double the tempo.
Representative pathway — 4 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Regional representative — 18 matches (+2.7)
- ● Body of work — 50 imported matches (+1.0)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 37.0 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Out for 0 in 20% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.30 keeping dismissals (WK catches + stumpings) per match. Work standing-up takes and leg-side stumpings — the fastest way for a keeper to add value.
Strengths
- ✓ Sharp glovework — 5 stumpings.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 25 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 47 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.26 for the level played (Club 22 · 4th grade 2 · 5th grade and below 16). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 40 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Keeping: 10 catches + 5 stumpings + 3 run outs (1 direct, 2 assisted) in 50 matches — 0.36 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 49 innings at 17.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 33 wickets in 30 matches bowled in (of 50 played) — 1.10 per match at 25.9, economy 4.67, strike rate 33.3.
