Mark Trafford-Walker
Representative pathway — 2 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Regional representative — 10 matches (+1.5)
- ● Body of work — 48 imported matches (+1.0)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 14.5 over 33 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Only 0.08 catches per match over 48 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.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 15.4.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.28.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 9 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 62 × 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 30 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 4 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 48 matches — 0.10 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 33 innings at 14.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 55 wickets in 42 matches bowled in (of 48 played) — 1.31 per match at 15.4, economy 3.28, strike rate 28.2.
