Gus Kelly (18)
The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 40 balls (SR 125), then 50 to 100 in just 38 (SR 132) — more than double the tempo.
Representative pathway — 0 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 10 imported matches (+0.2)
Critical recommendations
4 of 7 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 0.10 catches per match over 10 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
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 42.4.
- ✓ Scores quickly (SR 105.0) without sacrificing consistency.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 116.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 0 × 40% · Batting 86 × 30% · Bowling 60 × 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 6). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 6 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 1 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 10 matches — 0.20 per match.
- Batting
- 326 runs in 10 innings, adjusted average 42.4, strike rate 105.0. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 10 wickets in 9 matches bowled in (of 10 played) — 1.11 per match at 20.8, economy 4.73, strike rate 26.4.
