Niren Vekaria
Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 27 imported matches (+0.5)
Critical recommendations
Going at 5.69 an over. Tighten the stock ball: hit a consistent length, cut out the 4-ball (short and wide / overpitched on the pads).
0.59 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Scores quickly (SR 102.5) without sacrificing consistency.
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 12.6.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 13 balls.
- ✓ Safe hands — 16 catches in 27 matches (0.59 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 54 × 40% · Batting 58 × 30% · Bowling 66 × 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 27). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 27 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 16 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 27 matches — 0.63 per match.
- Batting
- 578 runs in 25 innings, adjusted average 28.7, strike rate 102.5. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 36 wickets in 25 matches bowled in (of 27 played) — 1.44 per match at 12.6, economy 5.69, strike rate 13.3.
