Vighnesh Kulkarni (12)
Representative pathway — 0 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 18 imported matches (+0.4)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 9.7 over 17 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
3 of 6 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.
Only 0.00 catches per match over 18 matches. Fielding is the first thing selectors compare when batting/bowling are close — make catching the priority: 30 high balls + 30 flat catches per session, and ask to field in the ring/slips where chances come.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 23 × 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
- ×0.30 for the level played (Club 15). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 15 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 0 catches + 3 run outs (3 direct, 0 assisted) in 18 matches — 0.17 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 17 innings at 9.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 9 wickets in 17 matches bowled in (of 18 played) — 0.53 per match at 24.1, economy 4.72, strike rate 30.7.
