Christopher Smith (29)
Representative pathway — 2 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Premier or state pathway — 3 matches (+1.2)
- ● Body of work — 55 imported matches (+1.1)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 14.6 over 49 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Economy of 3.72 is excellent but a wicket every 48 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
0.40 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 22 catches in 55 matches (0.40 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 47 × 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
- ×0.31 for the level played (Rep Div 1 3 · Club 52). 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: 20 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 55 matches — 0.36 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 49 innings at 14.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 11 wickets from 89.0 overs across 35 matches bowled in (of 55 played) — 0.31 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
