Lucas O'Brien (15)
Representative pathway — 11 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Premier or state pathway — 25 matches (+10.0)
- ● Body of work — 59 imported matches (+1.2)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 10.1 over 36 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Out for 0 in 31% 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 13.6.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.18.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 29 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 70 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.59 for the level played (Rep Div 1 25 · Club 17). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 42 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 10 catches + 5 run outs (1 direct, 4 assisted) in 59 matches — 0.25 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 36 innings at 10.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 66 wickets in 52 matches bowled in (of 59 played) — 1.27 per match at 13.6, economy 3.18, strike rate 25.7.
