Joshua Matzelle
Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 39 imported matches (+0.8)
Critical recommendations
Out for 0 in 10% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.56 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 22 catches in 39 matches (0.56 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 34 × 40% · Batting 39 × 30% · Bowling 33 × 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 21). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 21 matches since 29 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 12 catches + 7 run outs (3 direct, 4 assisted) in 39 matches — 0.49 per match.
- Batting
- 553 runs in 38 innings, adjusted average 19.9, strike rate 67.2. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 17 wickets in 37 matches bowled in (of 39 played) — 0.46 per match at 20.2, economy 4.13, strike rate 29.4.
