THOMAS HARDY
Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 63 imported matches (+1.3)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 3.1 over 35 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
14 of 24 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.
Only 0.02 catches per match over 63 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.
Out for 0 in 26% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Economy of 3.87 is excellent but a wicket every 41 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 3 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 46 × 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 34). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 34 matches since 29 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 1 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 63 matches — 0.02 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 35 innings at 3.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 51 wickets in 57 matches bowled in (of 63 played) — 0.89 per match at 26.5, economy 3.87, strike rate 41.0.
