Bailey Wake
The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 60 balls (SR 83), then 50 to 100 in just 48 (SR 104) — more than double the tempo.
Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating

Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 47.9 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
13 of 26 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 18% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Economy of 3.69 is excellent but a wicket every 59 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
0.23 dismissals per match across 31 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 23 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 29 × 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 11). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 11 matches since 28 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 7 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 31 matches — 0.23 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 28 innings at 16.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 9 wickets in 18 matches bowled in (of 31 played) — 0.50 per match at 36.6, economy 3.69, strike rate 59.4.
