Jacob Malvern (19)
Representative pathway — 8 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 13 imported matches (+0.3)
- ● Genuine all-rounder — strong in both disciplines (+8)
Critical recommendations
6 of 8 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
0.77 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 47.0.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 118.
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 9.8.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.50.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 24 balls.
- ✓ Safe hands — 10 catches in 13 matches (0.77 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 82 × 40% · Batting 76 × 30% · Bowling 76 × 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 9). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 9 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 10 catches + 3 run outs (0 direct, 3 assisted) in 13 matches — 1.00 per match.
- Batting
- 423 runs in 12 innings, adjusted average 47.0. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 30 wickets in 13 matches — 2.31 per match at 9.8, economy 2.50, strike rate 23.5.
