Hamish Short
Representative pathway — 0 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 20 imported matches (+0.4)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 11.9 over 19 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
5 of 8 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.
1.3 wides/no-balls per over is gifting runs and momentum. Groove the run-up and release with target bowling — a cone on a 4th-stump line, 30+ balls per session.
Going at 5.69 an over. Tighten the stock ball: hit a consistent length, cut out the 4-ball (short and wide / overpitched on the pads).
Only 0.05 catches per match over 20 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 60 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · 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 1). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 1 match since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 1 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 20 matches — 0.15 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 19 innings at 11.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 11 wickets from 51.0 overs across 20 matches — 0.55 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
