Shujaat Ali
The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 70 balls (SR 71), then 50 to 100 in just 35 (SR 143) — more than double the tempo.
Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 28 imported matches (+0.6)
Critical recommendations
Only 0.07 catches per match over 28 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 42.0.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 3 hundred(s), best of 103.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 10 × 40% · Batting 85 × 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 26 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 28 matches — 0.07 per match.
- Batting
- 866 runs in 28 innings, adjusted average 42.0, strike rate 77.9. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 1 wicket from 25.0 overs across 5 matches bowled in (of 28 played) — 0.04 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
