Benjamin Linke
Representative pathway — 0 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 9 imported matches (+0.2)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 11.0 over 7 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
3 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.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 6 catches in 9 matches (0.67 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 62 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · 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 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
- Keeping: 6 catches + 1 stumpings + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 9 matches — 1.00 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 7 innings at 11.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 1 wicket from 4.0 overs across 3 matches bowled in (of 9 played) — 0.11 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
