Kirsten Benzie
Representative pathway — 3 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Premier or state pathway — 7 matches (+2.8)
- ● Body of work — 12 imported matches (+0.2)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 2.9 over 9 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
6 of 7 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.
Out for 0 in 11% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 13.1.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.63.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 21 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 65 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.48 for the level played (2nd grade 7 · Club 5). 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: 3 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 12 matches — 0.25 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 9 innings at 2.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 9 wickets in 9 matches bowled in (of 12 played) — 1.00 per match at 13.1, economy 3.63, strike rate 21.7.
