Suren Ekanayake
The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 65 balls (SR 77), then 50 to 100 in just 49 (SR 102) — more than double the tempo.
Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 70 imported matches (+1.4)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 60.9 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Strengths
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 3 hundred(s), best of 107.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 55 × 40% · Batting 84 × 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 17). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 17 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 19 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 70 matches — 0.27 per match.
- Batting
- 1,424 runs in 60 innings, adjusted average 27.3, strike rate 60.9. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 9 wickets from 53.0 overs across 11 matches bowled in (of 70 played) — 0.13 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
