Dan Whincup
The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 65 balls (SR 77), then 50 to 100 in just 58 (SR 86) — more than double the tempo.
Representative pathway — 15 pathway points in the overall rating

Critical recommendations
Out for 0 in 24% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.19 dismissals per match across 21 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 160.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 8 × 40% · Batting 72 × 30% · Bowling 50 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.52 for the level played (2nd grade 15 · 3rd grade 2 · 4th grade 4). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 21 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 2 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 21 matches — 0.10 per match.
- Batting
- 488 runs in 21 innings, adjusted average 26.6, strike rate 75.4. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 11 wickets in 5 matches bowled in (of 21 played) — 0.52 per match at 9.6, economy 3.18, strike rate 18.0.
