Josh Rankin
Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Premier or state pathway — 3 matches (+1.2)
- ● Body of work — 8 imported matches (+0.2)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 24.2 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Economy of 3.98 is excellent but a wicket every 125 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 20 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 17 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.29 for the level played (Club 5 · 4th grade 3). 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 + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 8 matches — 0.25 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 8 innings at 16.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 2 wickets in 7 matches bowled in (of 8 played) — 0.29 per match at 83.0, economy 3.98, strike rate 125.0.
