Daniel McDowell
The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 35 balls (SR 143), then 50 to 100 in just 19 (SR 263) — more than double the tempo.
Representative pathway — 0 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 15 imported matches (+0.3)
Critical recommendations
6 of 12 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.
Going at 6.06 an over. Tighten the stock ball: hit a consistent length, cut out the 4-ball (short and wide / overpitched on the pads).
Out for 0 in 13% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Scores quickly (SR 91.2) without sacrificing consistency.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 112.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 30 × 40% · Batting 68 × 30% · Bowling 14 × 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 15). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 15 matches since 30 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 4 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 15 matches — 0.33 per match.
- Batting
- 360 runs in 15 innings, adjusted average 28.8, strike rate 91.2. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 5 wickets in 14 matches bowled in (of 15 played) — 0.36 per match at 56.6, economy 6.06, strike rate 56.0.
