Liam Richardson (27)
Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Premier or state pathway — 1 match (+0.4)
- ● Body of work — 49 imported matches (+1.0)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 48.4 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
0.53 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 26 catches in 49 matches (0.53 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- ✓ Sharp glovework — 8 stumpings.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 24 × 40% · Batting 41 × 30% · 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
- ×0.33 for the level played (Rep Div 1 6 · Club 42 · 4th grade 1). 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
- Keeping: 22 catches + 8 stumpings + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 49 matches — 0.63 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- 825 runs in 45 innings, adjusted average 21.6, strike rate 48.4. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 4 wickets from 38.0 overs across 12 matches bowled in (of 49 played) — 0.08 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
