Kamalanathan Kulanthai Gounder
Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 38 imported matches (+0.8)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 5.8 over 41 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
23 of 37 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 24% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.47 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 18 catches in 38 matches (0.47 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 38 × 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 22). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 22 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 12 catches + 4 run outs (2 direct, 2 assisted) in 38 matches — 0.42 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 41 innings at 5.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 4 wickets from 30.0 overs across 10 matches bowled in (of 38 played) — 0.11 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
