Rahul Sharma
The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 63 balls (SR 79), then 50 to 100 in just 56 (SR 89) — more than double the tempo.
Representative pathway — 7 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Premier or state pathway — 16 matches (+6.4)
- ● Body of work — 17 imported matches (+0.3)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 59.5 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Only 0.12 catches per match over 17 matches. Fielding is the first thing selectors compare when batting/bowling are close — make catching the priority: 30 high balls + 30 flat catches per session, and ask to field in the ring/slips where chances come.
Out for 0 in 19% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 106.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 20 × 40% · Batting 58 × 30% · Bowling 25 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.41 for the level played (2nd grade 2 · 3rd grade 12 · Club 1 · 4th grade 2). 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: 2 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 17 matches — 0.18 per match.
- Batting
- 288 runs in 16 innings, adjusted average 19.1, strike rate 59.5. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 3 wickets in 6 matches bowled in (of 17 played) — 0.18 per match at 44.7, economy 4.70, strike rate 57.0.
