Alex Kater (35)
Representative pathway — 0 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 16 imported matches (+0.3)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 9.0 over 19 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Out for 0 in 32% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.50 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 9.6.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.70.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 21 balls.
- ✓ Safe hands — 8 catches in 16 matches (0.50 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 27 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 67 × 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 16). 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: 4 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 16 matches — 0.25 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 19 innings at 9.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 12 wickets in 8 matches bowled in (of 16 played) — 1.50 per match at 9.6, economy 2.70, strike rate 21.3.
