Joshua Appleton
Representative pathway — 3 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Regional representative — 15 matches (+2.2)
- ● Body of work — 15 imported matches (+0.3)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 14.8 over 14 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Only 0.13 catches per match over 15 matches. Fielding is the first thing selectors compare when batting/bowling are close — make catching the priority: 30 high balls + 30 flat catches per session, and ask to field in the ring/slips where chances come.
Economy of 2.73 is excellent but a wicket every 50 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.73.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 15 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 42 × 30%. 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 (3rd grade 15). 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: 2 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 15 matches — 0.20 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 14 innings at 14.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 21 wickets in 14 matches bowled in (of 15 played) — 1.50 per match at 22.8, economy 2.73, strike rate 50.0.
