Tom Drake
Representative pathway — 7 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Division 1 representative (+4)
- ● Regional representative — 16 matches (+2.4)
- ● Body of work — 16 imported matches (+0.3)
Critical recommendations
Only 0.06 catches per match over 16 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 16.7.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.96.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 7 × 40% · Batting 51 × 30% · Bowling 54 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.78 for the level played (Rep Div 1 16). 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: 1 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 16 matches — 0.06 per match.
- Batting
- 253 runs in 12 innings, adjusted average 26.4, strike rate 69.2. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 22 wickets in 16 matches — 1.38 per match at 16.7, economy 2.96, strike rate 33.8.
