Cooper Stephen (17)
Representative pathway — 10 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Premier or state pathway — 22 matches (+8.8)
- ● Body of work — 60 imported matches (+1.2)
Critical recommendations
Only 0.10 catches per match over 60 matches. Fielding is the first thing selectors compare when batting/bowling are close — make catching the priority: 30 high balls + 30 flat catches per session, and ask to field in the ring/slips where chances come.
Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (8 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 8.7.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.68.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 19 balls.
- ✓ Sharp glovework — 5 stumpings.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 17 × 40% · Batting 54 × 30% · Bowling 82 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.56 for the level played (State competition 9 · Rep Div 1 18 · Club 33). 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: 6 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 60 matches — 0.12 per match.
- Batting
- 1,109 runs in 52 innings, adjusted average 29.5, strike rate 66.0. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 65 wickets in 47 matches bowled in (of 60 played) — 1.38 per match at 8.7, economy 2.68, strike rate 19.4.
