James McMahon
Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 45 imported matches (+0.9)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 12.7 over 29 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Economy of 3.60 is excellent but a wicket every 42 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.60.
- ✓ Safe hands — 16 catches in 45 matches (0.36 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 28 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 36 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.30 for the level played (Club 24). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 24 matches since 1 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 16 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 45 matches — 0.38 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 29 innings at 12.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 57 wickets in 42 matches bowled in (of 45 played) — 1.36 per match at 25.3, economy 3.60, strike rate 42.2.
