Joshua Cleary (14)
Representative pathway — 8 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Division 1 representative (+4)
- ● Premier or state pathway — 8 matches (+3.2)
- ● Body of work — 23 imported matches (+0.5)
Critical recommendations
Economy of 3.99 is excellent but a wicket every 46 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
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 — 11 catches in 23 matches (0.48 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 50 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 25 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.33 for the level played (Rep Div 2 8 · Club 13). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 21 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 10 catches + 6 run outs (0 direct, 6 assisted) in 23 matches — 0.70 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 16 innings at 19.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 6 wickets in 18 matches bowled in (of 23 played) — 0.33 per match at 30.3, economy 3.99, strike rate 45.7.
