Ben PUCKERIDGE (28)
Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 54 imported matches (+1.1)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 4.4 over 34 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
14 of 25 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 26% 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 12.0.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.75.
- 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
- ×0.30 for the level played (Club 54). 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: 17 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 54 matches — 0.31 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 34 innings at 4.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 50 wickets in 46 matches bowled in (of 54 played) — 1.09 per match at 12.0, economy 2.75, strike rate 26.2.
