Steve Simpson
Representative pathway — 4 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Regional representative — 24 matches (+3.6)
- ● Body of work — 24 imported matches (+0.5)
Critical recommendations
Only 0.04 catches per match over 24 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.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 0 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 48 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.30 for the level played (Club 24). 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: 1 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 24 matches — 0.04 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 19 innings at 19.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 22 wickets in 20 matches bowled in (of 24 played) — 1.10 per match at 23.4, economy 4.33, strike rate 32.5.
