Matthew Buttenshaw (26)
Representative pathway — 0 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 14 imported matches (+0.3)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 8.9 over 13 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
7 of 11 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 23% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
1.14 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 15.9.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.31.
- ✓ Safe hands — 16 catches in 14 matches (1.14 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 63 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 61 × 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 14). 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: 13 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 14 matches — 0.93 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 13 innings at 8.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 10 wickets in 13 matches bowled in (of 14 played) — 0.77 per match at 15.9, economy 3.31, strike rate 28.8.
