Michael Roberts
The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 50 balls (SR 100), then 50 to 100 in just 40 (SR 125) — more than double the tempo.
Representative pathway — 0 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 19 imported matches (+0.4)
Critical recommendations
Only 0.11 catches per match over 19 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.
12 of 15 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
Strengths
- ✓ Scores quickly (SR 108.1) without sacrificing consistency.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 102.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 11 × 40% · Batting 68 × 30% · Bowling not rated (weight redistributed). 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 16). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 16 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 2 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 19 matches — 0.11 per match.
- Batting
- 395 runs in 17 innings, adjusted average 26.0, strike rate 108.1. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 2 wickets from 7.0 overs across 2 matches bowled in (of 19 played) — 0.11 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
