Matthew Davis
The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 78 balls (SR 64), then 50 to 100 in just 35 (SR 143) — more than double the tempo.
Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 61 imported matches (+1.2)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 61.9 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
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.
Strengths
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 108.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 33 × 40% · Batting 56 × 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 40). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 40 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 20 catches + 4 run outs (1 direct, 3 assisted) in 61 matches — 0.39 per match.
- Batting
- 1,137 runs in 59 innings, adjusted average 21.9, strike rate 61.9. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 1 wicket from 3.0 overs across 2 matches bowled in (of 61 played) — 0.02 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
