Akain Hewa Kurunduge (15)
Representative pathway — 0 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 14 imported matches (+0.3)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 2.8 over 16 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
1.3 wides/no-balls per over is gifting runs and momentum. Groove the run-up and release with target bowling — a cone on a 4th-stump line, 30+ balls per session.
Out for 0 in 50% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.43 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 6 catches in 14 matches (0.43 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 31 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 57 × 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 9). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 9 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 6 catches + 2 run outs (0 direct, 2 assisted) in 14 matches — 0.57 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 16 innings at 2.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 11 wickets in 14 matches — 0.79 per match at 28.5, economy 4.35, strike rate 39.3.
