Mat Pearson
Representative pathway — 11 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Premier or state pathway — 56 matches (+10.0)
- ● Body of work — 63 imported matches (+1.3)
Critical recommendations
Economy of 3.17 is excellent but a wicket every 43 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
0.40 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 3.17.
- ✓ Safe hands — 25 catches in 63 matches (0.40 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 41 × 40% · Batting 64 × 30% · Bowling 60 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.41 for the level played (3rd grade 55 · Club 7 · 4th grade 1). 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: 25 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 63 matches — 0.40 per match.
- Batting
- 989 runs in 59 innings, adjusted average 23.6, strike rate 82.7. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 27 wickets in 35 matches bowled in (of 63 played) — 0.77 per match at 22.7, economy 3.17, strike rate 42.9.
