Brayden Macdonald (30)
Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 54 imported matches (+1.1)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 8.2 over 39 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Out for 0 in 13% 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 13.7.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.97.
- ✓ Safe hands — 19 catches in 54 matches (0.35 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 25 × 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 54). 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: 19 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 54 matches — 0.39 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 39 innings at 8.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 95 wickets in 52 matches bowled in (of 54 played) — 1.83 per match at 13.7, economy 2.97, strike rate 27.6.
