Craig Annison
A front-loaded hundred: a quick first fifty off 49 balls (SR 102), then 50 to 100 at a steadier 74 balls (SR 68).
Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 36 imported matches (+0.7)
Critical recommendations
15 of 30 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 10% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.78 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 148.
- ✓ Safe hands — 28 catches in 36 matches (0.78 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- ✓ Sharp glovework — 6 stumpings.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 47 × 40% · Batting 65 × 30% · 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
- ×0.30 for the level played (Club 16). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 16 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 19 catches + 2 run outs (0 direct, 2 assisted) in 36 matches — 0.58 per match.
- Batting
- 805 runs in 39 innings, adjusted average 25.4, strike rate 79.3. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 3 wickets from 6.0 overs across 1 matches bowled in (of 36 played) — 0.08 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
