Oliver Cassidy (17)
The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 29 balls (SR 172), then 50 to 100 in just 22 (SR 227) — more than double the tempo.
Representative pathway — 4 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Premier or state pathway — 8 matches (+3.2)
- ● Body of work — 23 imported matches (+0.5)
Critical recommendations
Out for 0 in 15% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.22 dismissals per match across 23 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 23 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 36 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.72 for the level played (Rep Div 1 14 · Club 2). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 16 matches since 29 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 4 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 23 matches — 0.22 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 13 innings at 22.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 17 wickets in 22 matches bowled in (of 23 played) — 0.77 per match at 27.8, economy 4.72, strike rate 35.4.
