Laurence Gardner (12)
Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 33 imported matches (+0.7)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 9.6 over 32 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
11 of 20 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 0.03 catches per match over 33 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
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 19 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 40 × 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 17). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 17 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 1 catches + 3 run outs (1 direct, 2 assisted) in 33 matches — 0.12 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 32 innings at 9.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 28 wickets in 30 matches bowled in (of 33 played) — 0.93 per match at 13.0, economy 4.49, strike rate 17.3.
