James Risby
Representative pathway — 0 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 17 imported matches (+0.3)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 3.5 over 11 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Out for 0 in 36% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 17.4.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 38 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 62 × 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 11). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 11 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 5 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 17 matches — 0.29 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 11 innings at 3.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 22 wickets in 16 matches bowled in (of 17 played) — 1.38 per match at 17.4, economy 4.03, strike rate 25.9.
