Damien Hilliard (23)
Representative pathway — 5 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Premier or state pathway — 11 matches (+4.4)
- ● Body of work — 35 imported matches (+0.7)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 9.5 over 35 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Only 0.09 catches per match over 35 matches. Fielding is the first thing selectors compare when batting/bowling are close — make catching the priority: 30 high balls + 30 flat catches per session, and ask to field in the ring/slips where chances come.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 12.1.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.45.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 24 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 57 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.57 for the level played (Rep Div 1 11 · Club 24). 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: 3 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 35 matches — 0.14 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 35 innings at 9.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 26 wickets in 33 matches bowled in (of 35 played) — 0.79 per match at 12.1, economy 2.45, strike rate 29.5.
