Barath Dhanasekar (14)
Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 35 imported matches (+0.7)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 6.8 over 35 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
0.9 wides/no-balls per over is gifting runs and momentum. Groove the run-up and release with target bowling — a cone on a 4th-stump line, 30+ balls per session.
Out for 0 in 17% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 11.8.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.48.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 20 balls.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 39 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 76 × 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 13). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 13 matches since 30 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 11 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 35 matches — 0.31 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 35 innings at 6.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 45 wickets in 33 matches bowled in (of 35 played) — 1.36 per match at 11.8, economy 3.48, strike rate 20.4.
