Luke Butcher
Representative pathway — 0 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 16 imported matches (+0.3)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 14.6 over 15 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
7 of 14 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.90.
- ✓ Safe hands — 6 catches in 16 matches (0.38 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 39 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 64 × 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 10). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 10 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 6 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 16 matches — 0.44 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 15 innings at 14.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 6 wickets in 9 matches bowled in (of 16 played) — 0.67 per match at 19.3, economy 2.90, strike rate 40.0.
