Heston Freeman (15)
Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 53 imported matches (+1.1)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 7.5 over 38 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
18 of 27 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 0.13 catches per match over 53 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 13% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 14 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 40 × 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 23). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 23 matches since 30 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 7 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 53 matches — 0.15 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 38 innings at 7.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 43 wickets in 48 matches bowled in (of 53 played) — 0.90 per match at 14.4, economy 4.00, strike rate 21.6.
