Xavier Curtin (16)
Representative pathway — 3 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Premier or state pathway — 4 matches (+1.6)
- ● Body of work — 51 imported matches (+1.0)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 51.2 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
15 of 20 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 15.9.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.28.
- ✓ Safe hands — 18 catches in 51 matches (0.35 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 34 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 62 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.47 for the level played (State competition 4 · Rep Div 1 8 · Club 26). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 38 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 18 catches + 4 run outs (2 direct, 2 assisted) in 51 matches — 0.43 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 38 innings at 16.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 51 wickets in 47 matches bowled in (of 51 played) — 1.09 per match at 15.9, economy 3.28, strike rate 29.2.
