David Steele
The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 85 balls (SR 59), then 50 to 100 in just 32 (SR 156) — more than double the tempo.
Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 45 imported matches (+0.9)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 48.4 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Out for 0 in 18% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 104.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 38 × 40% · Batting 59 × 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
- ×0.30 for the level played (Club 8). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 8 matches since 30 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 13 catches + 3 run outs (0 direct, 3 assisted) in 45 matches — 0.36 per match.
- Batting
- 763 runs in 40 innings, adjusted average 21.9, strike rate 48.4. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
