James Griffin
Representative pathway — 5 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Regional representative — 42 matches (+4.0)
- ● Body of work — 56 imported matches (+1.1)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 10.9 over 52 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Only 0.14 catches per match over 56 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
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 16.8.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.73.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 15 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 65 × 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 56). 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: 8 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 56 matches — 0.18 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 52 innings at 10.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 34 wickets in 35 matches bowled in (of 56 played) — 0.97 per match at 16.8, economy 3.73, strike rate 26.9.
