Michael Clark
Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 34 imported matches (+0.7)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 37.9 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
19 of 27 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 11.4.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.93.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 24 balls.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 14 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 68 × 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 34). 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: 9 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 34 matches — 0.26 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 33 innings at 32.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 11 wickets in 6 matches bowled in (of 34 played) — 0.32 per match at 11.5, economy 2.93, strike rate 23.5.
