Thomas Cahalan (15)
The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 24 balls (SR 208), then 50 to 100 in just 22 (SR 227) — more than double the tempo.
Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 41 imported matches (+0.8)
Critical recommendations
12 of 17 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.
0.8 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.
Strengths
- ✓ Scores quickly (SR 98.7) without sacrificing consistency.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 131.
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 11.6.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 17 balls.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 44 × 40% · Batting 59 × 30% · Bowling 64 × 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 41). 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: 13 catches + 7 run outs (5 direct, 2 assisted) in 41 matches — 0.49 per match.
- Batting
- 651 runs in 40 innings, adjusted average 25.6, strike rate 98.7. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 36 wickets in 38 matches bowled in (of 41 played) — 0.95 per match at 11.6, economy 4.10, strike rate 16.9.
