Darcy Thatcher (17)
Representative pathway — 3 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Premier or state pathway — 6 matches (+2.4)
- ● Body of work — 10 imported matches (+0.2)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 7.7 over 8 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
4 of 6 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.
Out for 0 in 38% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
1.10 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 11 catches in 10 matches (1.10 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 88 × 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
- ×0.73 for the level played (Rep Div 1 6 · Club 4). 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: 11 catches + 3 run outs (1 direct, 2 assisted) in 10 matches — 1.40 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 8 innings at 7.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 7 wickets from 16.0 overs across 6 matches bowled in (of 10 played) — 1.17 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
