Benedict Watson
Representative pathway — 0 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 11 imported matches (+0.2)
Critical recommendations
7 of 10 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
Economy of 2.68 is excellent but a wicket every 46 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
0.82 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.68.
- ✓ Safe hands — 9 catches in 11 matches (0.82 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 41 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 52 × 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 11). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- No match in the last 2 years, so not ranked. The rating shown is from the career.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 9 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 11 matches — 0.82 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 11 innings at 19.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 12 wickets in 11 matches — 1.09 per match at 20.8, economy 2.68, strike rate 46.5.
