Joshua Richardson (25)
A front-loaded hundred: a quick first fifty off 80 balls (SR 63), then 50 to 100 at a steadier 113 balls (SR 44).
Representative pathway — 11 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Premier or state pathway — 25 matches (+10.0)
- ● Body of work — 41 imported matches (+0.8)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 50.5 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Only 12% of 50+ scores become hundreds (7 fifties, 1 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
Strengths
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 107.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 26 × 40% · Batting 64 × 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
- ×0.42 for the level played (2nd grade 7 · 3rd grade 13 · Club 6 · 4th grade 5). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 31 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 11 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 41 matches — 0.27 per match.
- Batting
- 1,043 runs in 42 innings, adjusted average 26.6, strike rate 50.5. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 0 wickets from 3.0 overs across 1 matches bowled in (of 41 played) — 0.00 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
