Oliver Lunt
The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 123 balls (SR 41), then 50 to 100 in just 39 (SR 128) — more than double the tempo.
Representative pathway — 11 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Premier or state pathway — 26 matches (+10.0)
- ● Regional representative — 1 match (+0.1)
- ● Body of work — 54 imported matches (+1.1)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 55.5 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
46 of 60 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
0.61 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 4 hundred(s), best of 160.
- ✓ Safe hands — 33 catches in 54 matches (0.61 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 64 × 40% · Batting 75 × 30% · Bowling 19 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.60 for the level played (1st grade 4 · 2nd grade 22 · 3rd grade 1 · Club 3). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 30 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 33 catches + 3 run outs (2 direct, 1 assisted) in 54 matches — 0.67 per match.
- Batting
- 1,701 runs in 64 innings, adjusted average 28.2, strike rate 55.5. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 12 wickets in 14 matches bowled in (of 54 played) — 0.22 per match at 17.9, economy 4.24, strike rate 25.3.
