David Yates
Representative pathway — 2 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Regional representative — 11 matches (+1.6)
- ● Body of work — 16 imported matches (+0.3)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 44.9 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
0.38 keeping dismissals (WK catches + stumpings) per match. Work standing-up takes and leg-side stumpings — the fastest way for a keeper to add value.
Strengths
- ✓ Reliable in the field — contributes a dismissal every second match.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 39 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 32 × 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 11). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 11 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Keeping: 2 catches + 4 stumpings + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 16 matches — 0.44 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 15 innings at 17.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 5 wickets in 3 matches bowled in (of 16 played) — 0.31 per match at 19.4, economy 4.62, strike rate 25.2.
