Liam Darlington
Representative pathway — 0 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 18 imported matches (+0.4)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 48.1 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
13 of 15 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
Strengths
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 41.7.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 168.
- ✓ Safe hands — 7 catches in 18 matches (0.39 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 27 × 40% · Batting 41 × 30% · Bowling not rated (weight redistributed). 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 6). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 6 matches since 28 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 7 catches + 3 run outs (1 direct, 2 assisted) in 18 matches — 0.56 per match.
- Batting
- 644 runs in 18 innings, adjusted average 41.7, strike rate 48.2. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 20 wickets from 97.8 overs across 13 matches bowled in (of 18 played) — 1.54 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
