Jim Kelly (19)
The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 58 balls (SR 86), then 50 to 100 in just 42 (SR 119) — more than double the tempo.
Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 41 imported matches (+0.8)
Critical recommendations
Only 0.12 catches per match over 41 matches. Fielding is the first thing selectors compare when batting/bowling are close — make catching the priority: 30 high balls + 30 flat catches per session, and ask to field in the ring/slips where chances come.
Economy of 3.54 is excellent but a wicket every 50 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 111.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 0 × 40% · Batting 46 × 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
- ×0.30 for the level played (Club 2). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 2 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 5 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 41 matches — 0.15 per match.
- Batting
- 820 runs in 36 innings, adjusted average 27.8, strike rate 78.3. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 24 wickets from 201.0 overs across 31 matches bowled in (of 41 played) — 0.77 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
