Ben Lagana
The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 46 balls (SR 109), then 50 to 100 in just 36 (SR 139) — more than double the tempo.
Representative pathway — 2 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Regional representative — 2 matches (+0.3)
- ● Body of work — 70 imported matches (+1.4)
Critical recommendations
0.64 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 32.9.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 2 hundred(s), best of 134.
- ✓ Safe hands — 45 catches in 70 matches (0.64 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- ✓ Sharp glovework — 11 stumpings.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 21 × 40% · Batting 80 × 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
- ×0.33 for the level played (Rep Div 1 2 · Club 26). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 28 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 24 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 70 matches — 0.36 per match.
- Batting
- 1,835 runs in 66 innings, adjusted average 32.9, strike rate 81.4. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 10 wickets from 28.7 overs across 9 matches bowled in (of 70 played) — 0.14 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
