Benjamin Pickford
Representative pathway — 0 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 9 imported matches (+0.2)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 13.8 over 8 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
4 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.
Out for 0 in 38% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Economy of 3.62 is excellent but a wicket every 46 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 62 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 36 × 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 9). 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: 4 catches + 3 run outs (3 direct, 0 assisted) in 9 matches — 0.78 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 8 innings at 13.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 5 wickets in 9 matches — 0.56 per match at 27.6, economy 3.62, strike rate 45.8.
