Dan Meddings
The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 72 balls (SR 69), then 50 to 100 in just 41 (SR 122) — more than double the tempo.
Representative pathway — 11 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Premier or state pathway — 33 matches (+10.0)
- ● Body of work — 54 imported matches (+1.1)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 55.1 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
0.52 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 110.
- ✓ Safe hands — 28 catches in 54 matches (0.52 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 40 × 40% · Batting 67 × 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
- ×0.56 for the level played (2nd grade 25 · 3rd grade 8). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 33 matches since 2 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 28 catches + 7 run outs (5 direct, 2 assisted) in 54 matches — 0.65 per match.
- Batting
- 1,238 runs in 52 innings, adjusted average 27.0, strike rate 55.1. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
