James Edwards
Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 34 imported matches (+0.7)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 14.9 over 37 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
0.59 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 12.4.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.93.
- ✓ Safe hands — 20 catches in 34 matches (0.59 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 39 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 69 × 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 34). 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: 20 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 34 matches — 0.59 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 37 innings at 14.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 27 wickets in 17 matches bowled in (of 34 played) — 1.59 per match at 12.4, economy 2.93, strike rate 25.4.
