Jacob Elek (22)
Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 31 imported matches (+0.6)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 11.5 over 30 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
0.58 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 18 catches in 31 matches (0.58 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 56 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 47 × 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 20). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 20 matches since 30 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 16 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 31 matches — 0.55 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 30 innings at 11.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 40 wickets in 30 matches bowled in (of 31 played) — 1.33 per match at 24.4, economy 4.19, strike rate 34.9.
