Linken Davies (15)
Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 25 imported matches (+0.5)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 41.6 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
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.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 9 catches in 25 matches (0.36 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 35 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 55 × 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 25). 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: 7 catches + 3 run outs (3 direct, 0 assisted) in 25 matches — 0.40 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 24 innings at 15.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 20 wickets in 24 matches bowled in (of 25 played) — 0.83 per match at 13.3, economy 4.51, strike rate 17.7.
