Brendan Meagher
Representative pathway — 11 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Premier or state pathway — 50 matches (+10.0)
- ● Body of work — 53 imported matches (+1.1)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 11.4 over 42 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Out for 0 in 12% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Economy of 3.47 is excellent but a wicket every 64 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.47.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 14 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 26 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.64 for the level played (1st grade 30 · 2nd grade 20 · Club 3). 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: 12 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 53 matches — 0.25 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 42 innings at 11.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 55 wickets in 52 matches bowled in (of 53 played) — 1.06 per match at 37.1, economy 3.47, strike rate 64.2.
