Abdul Kareem
The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 75 balls (SR 67), then 50 to 100 in just 43 (SR 116) — more than double the tempo.
Representative pathway — 4 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Regional representative — 20 matches (+3.0)
- ● Body of work — 54 imported matches (+1.1)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 50.5 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Out for 0 in 12% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Only 14% of 50+ scores become hundreds (6 fifties, 1 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
Economy of 3.50 is excellent but a wicket every 43 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
Strengths
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 101.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 8 × 40% · Batting 51 × 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
- ×0.24 for the level played (Club 1 · 4th grade 9 · 5th grade and below 11). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 21 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 11 catches + 3 run outs (1 direct, 2 assisted) in 54 matches — 0.26 per match.
- Batting
- 954 runs in 50 innings, adjusted average 24.0, strike rate 50.5. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 18 wickets from 127.8 overs across 22 matches bowled in (of 54 played) — 0.82 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
