Keshav Sankar (19)
The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 81 balls (SR 62), then 50 to 100 in just 73 (SR 68) — more than double the tempo.

Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 55.4 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Only 0.11 catches per match over 35 matches. Fielding is the first thing selectors compare when batting/bowling are close — make catching the priority: 30 high balls + 30 flat catches per session, and ask to field in the ring/slips where chances come.
Out for 0 in 11% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 100.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 16 × 40% · Batting 46 × 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 16). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 16 matches since 2 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 4 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 35 matches — 0.14 per match.
- Batting
- 565 runs in 35 innings, adjusted average 18.9, strike rate 55.4. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 6 wickets from 47.0 overs across 13 matches bowled in (of 35 played) — 0.17 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
