Matthew Allen
The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 73 balls (SR 68), then 50 to 100 in just 23 (SR 217) — more than double the tempo.
Representative pathway — 0 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 13 imported matches (+0.3)
Critical recommendations
Out for 0 in 18% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Economy of 3.04 is excellent but a wicket every 40 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
Strengths
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 56.2.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 2 hundred(s), best of 155.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.04.
- ✓ Safe hands — 5 catches in 13 matches (0.38 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 37 × 40% · Batting 91 × 30% · Bowling 54 × 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 27 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 13 matches — 0.46 per match.
- Batting
- 486 runs in 11 innings, adjusted average 56.2, strike rate 83.4. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 8 wickets in 10 matches bowled in (of 13 played) — 0.80 per match at 20.5, economy 3.04, strike rate 40.5.
