Michael Delaney
The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 88 balls (SR 57), then 50 to 100 in just 82 (SR 61) — more than double the tempo.
Representative pathway — 0 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 8 imported matches (+0.2)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 54.6 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Only 3 batting innings imported — import more of this player's matches before treating these findings as conclusive.
Strengths
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 57.8.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 105.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 31 × 40% · Batting 74 × 30% · 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 8). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 8 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 3 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 8 matches — 0.38 per match.
- Batting
- 130 runs in 3 innings, adjusted average 57.8, strike rate 54.6. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 1 wicket from 1.0 overs across 1 matches bowled in (of 8 played) — 0.12 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
