Saravanan Sivakumar (29)
Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 29 imported matches (+0.6)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 9.7 over 20 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
5 of 10 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 20% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.24 dismissals per match across 29 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 15.4.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.66.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 32 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 68 × 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 7). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 7 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 6 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 29 matches — 0.24 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 20 innings at 9.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 35 wickets in 27 matches bowled in (of 29 played) — 1.30 per match at 15.4, economy 2.66, strike rate 34.7.
