Gerrard Bence
Representative pathway — 2 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Premier or state pathway — 4 matches (+1.6)
- ● Body of work — 19 imported matches (+0.4)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 10.0 over 7 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
2 of 4 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.
Economy of 2.99 is excellent but a wicket every 58 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
0.21 dismissals per match across 19 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 41 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 26 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.85 for the level played (1st grade 4). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 4 matches since 29 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 4 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 19 matches — 0.21 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 7 innings at 10.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 19 wickets in 18 matches bowled in (of 19 played) — 1.06 per match at 28.8, economy 2.99, strike rate 57.8.
