Sam Gardiner (25)
Representative pathway — 0 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 15 imported matches (+0.3)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 7.0 over 7 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
3 of 6 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.
Only 0.13 catches per match over 15 matches. Fielding is the first thing selectors compare when batting/bowling are close — make catching the priority: 30 high balls + 30 flat catches per session, and ask to field in the ring/slips where chances come.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 15.3.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.38.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 0 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 70 × 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 15). 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: 2 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 15 matches — 0.20 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 7 innings at 7.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 20 wickets in 15 matches — 1.33 per match at 15.4, economy 3.38, strike rate 27.3.
