Joshua Newham (23)
Representative pathway — 2 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Premier or state pathway — 4 matches (+1.6)
- ● Body of work — 27 imported matches (+0.5)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 13.3 over 22 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
9 of 18 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.
0.44 keeping dismissals (WK catches + stumpings) per match. Work standing-up takes and leg-side stumpings — the fastest way for a keeper to add value.
0.48 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 27 matches (0.48 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 44 × 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
- ×0.40 for the level played (Rep Div 1 4 · Club 23). 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: 8 catches + 4 stumpings + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 27 matches — 0.44 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 22 innings at 13.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 6 wickets from 21.7 overs across 11 matches bowled in (of 27 played) — 0.22 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
