Nishitha Weerakoon
Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 50 imported matches (+1.0)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 14.4 over 50 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Out for 0 in 14% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.54 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 27 catches in 50 matches (0.54 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- ✓ Sharp glovework — 8 stumpings.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 43 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · 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 13). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 13 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Keeping: 20 catches + 8 stumpings + 3 run outs (2 direct, 1 assisted) in 50 matches — 0.62 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 50 innings at 14.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 0 wickets from 1.0 overs across 1 matches bowled in (of 50 played) — 0.00 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
