Graeme Rankin
The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 62 balls (SR 81), then 50 to 100 in just 51 (SR 98) — more than double the tempo.
Representative pathway — 2 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Regional representative — 8 matches (+1.2)
- ● Body of work — 44 imported matches (+0.9)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 51.5 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Only 0.14 catches per match over 44 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
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 101.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 16 × 40% · Batting 50 × 30% · 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 31). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 31 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 6 catches + 2 run outs (0 direct, 2 assisted) in 44 matches — 0.18 per match.
- Batting
- 771 runs in 40 innings, adjusted average 21.2, strike rate 51.5. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 1 wicket from 19.0 overs across 5 matches bowled in (of 44 played) — 0.02 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
