Calvin Smith (15)
Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 47 imported matches (+0.9)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 5.5 over 35 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
13 of 26 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.
Only 0.06 catches per match over 47 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 23% 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 17.9.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 7 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 58 × 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 28). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 28 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 3 catches + 3 run outs (2 direct, 1 assisted) in 47 matches — 0.13 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 35 innings at 5.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 41 wickets in 46 matches bowled in (of 47 played) — 0.89 per match at 17.9, economy 3.91, strike rate 27.5.
