Mark Smith
The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 54 balls (SR 93), then 50 to 100 in just 17 (SR 294) — more than double the tempo.
Representative pathway — 0 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 6 imported matches (+0.1)
Critical recommendations
4 of 5 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.
70% of runs come in boundaries yet the strike rate is modest — between boundaries the scoreboard stalls. Add strike rotation to keep bowlers from settling.
Strengths
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 35.5.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 112.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 74 × 40% · Batting 48 × 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 6). 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: 3 catches + 2 run outs (1 direct, 1 assisted) in 6 matches — 0.83 per match.
- Batting
- 193 runs in 7 innings, adjusted average 35.5, strike rate 71.0. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 8 wickets from 25.0 overs across 4 matches bowled in (of 6 played) — 1.33 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
