🥈 Liam Astbury (20)
Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Regional representative — 1 match (+0.1)
- ● Body of work — 49 imported matches (+1.0)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 11.9 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.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 19 catches in 49 matches (0.39 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 0 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling not rated (weight redistributed). Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.20 for the level played (5th grade and below 1). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 1 match since 31 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 18 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 49 matches — 0.39 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 42 innings at 11.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 49 wickets from 258.8 overs across 44 matches bowled in (of 49 played) — 1.11 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
