Finlay Whiteford (15)
Representative pathway — 0 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 22 imported matches (+0.4)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 13.5 over 22 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
0.9 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.
Only 0.09 catches per match over 22 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 7.9.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.50.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 19 balls.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 11 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 73 × 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 22). 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: 2 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 22 matches — 0.09 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 22 innings at 13.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 19 wickets in 22 matches — 0.86 per match at 7.9, economy 2.50, strike rate 18.9.
