Henil Patel
The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 89 balls (SR 56), then 50 to 100 in just 44 (SR 114) — more than double the tempo.
Representative pathway — 11 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Premier or state pathway — 17 matches (+6.8)
- ● Regional representative — 18 matches (+2.7)
- ● Body of work — 51 imported matches (+1.0)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 58.5 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
0.41 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 21 catches in 51 matches (0.41 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 36 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 44 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.68 for the level played (1st grade 15 · 2nd grade 14 · 3rd grade 6). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 35 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 21 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 51 matches — 0.41 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 55 innings at 18.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 26 wickets in 26 matches bowled in (of 51 played) — 1.00 per match at 24.7, economy 4.06, strike rate 36.6.
