Ethan van ZYL (22)
Representative pathway — 2 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Premier or state pathway — 4 matches (+1.6)
- ● Body of work — 38 imported matches (+0.8)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 13.3 over 30 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
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.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 9.4.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.97.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 19 balls.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 27 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 65 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.38 for the level played (State competition 4 · Club 34). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- No match in the last 2 years, so not ranked. The rating shown is from the career.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 13 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 38 matches — 0.39 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 30 innings at 13.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 47 wickets in 35 matches bowled in (of 38 played) — 1.34 per match at 9.4, economy 2.97, strike rate 19.0.
