Tom Smith
Representative pathway — 8 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Premier or state pathway — 18 matches (+7.2)
- ● Body of work — 18 imported matches (+0.4)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 39.4 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Out for 0 in 12% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.44 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 3.54.
- ✓ Safe hands — 8 catches in 18 matches (0.44 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 44 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 48 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.85 for the level played (1st grade 18). 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: 8 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 18 matches — 0.50 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 17 innings at 21.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 30 wickets in 17 matches bowled in (of 18 played) — 1.76 per match at 23.2, economy 3.54, strike rate 39.4.
