James Woodward
Representative pathway — 0 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 10 imported matches (+0.2)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 2.0 over 7 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
7 of 7 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 31 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · 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 9). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 9 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 2 catches + 2 run outs (0 direct, 2 assisted) in 10 matches — 0.40 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 7 innings at 2.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 2 wickets from 35.3 overs across 9 matches bowled in (of 10 played) — 0.22 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
