Aaron McIlroy
Representative pathway — 11 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Premier or state pathway — 27 matches (+10.0)
- ● Body of work — 40 imported matches (+0.8)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 14.7 over 26 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Out for 0 in 12% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.43 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.03.
- ✓ Safe hands — 17 catches in 40 matches (0.43 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 39 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 51 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.42 for the level played (3rd grade 27). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 27 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 17 catches + 3 run outs (1 direct, 2 assisted) in 40 matches — 0.50 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 26 innings at 14.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 71 wickets in 40 matches — 1.77 per match at 18.2, economy 3.03, strike rate 36.1.
