Tom Barker (23)
Representative pathway — 2 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Premier or state pathway — 3 matches (+1.2)
- ● Body of work — 20 imported matches (+0.4)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 7.7 over 11 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
5 of 6 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
0.65 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 13 catches in 20 matches (0.65 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 42 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling not rated (weight redistributed). Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.35 for the level played (State competition 3 · Club 17). 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
- Keeping: 7 catches + 3 stumpings + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 20 matches — 0.55 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 11 innings at 7.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 2 wickets from 8.0 overs across 4 matches bowled in (of 20 played) — 0.10 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
