Jack Mecham
The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 86 balls (SR 58), then 50 to 100 in just 26 (SR 192) — more than double the tempo.
Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Premier or state pathway — 1 match (+0.4)
- ● Body of work — 18 imported matches (+0.4)
Critical recommendations
13 of 16 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
0.50 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 35.8.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 106.
- ✓ Safe hands — 9 catches in 18 matches (0.50 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 41 × 40% · Batting 53 × 30% · Bowling 26 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.38 for the level played (Rep Div 1 1 · Club 5). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 6 matches since 30 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 9 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 18 matches — 0.50 per match.
- Batting
- 588 runs in 19 innings, adjusted average 35.8, strike rate 81.1. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 18 wickets in 15 matches bowled in (of 18 played) — 1.20 per match at 22.4, economy 5.29, strike rate 25.4.
