Taj Denham
Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 44 imported matches (+0.9)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 11.3 over 41 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Only 0.00 catches per match over 44 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 0 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling not rated (weight redistributed). 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 + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 44 matches — 0.00 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 41 innings at 11.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 31 wickets from 66.0 overs across 40 matches bowled in (of 44 played) — 0.70 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
