Brendan Grace
The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 76 balls (SR 66), then 50 to 100 in just 45 (SR 111) — more than double the tempo.
Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Premier or state pathway — 1 match (+0.4)
- ● Body of work — 53 imported matches (+1.1)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 58.3 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
0.55 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 104.
- ✓ Safe hands — 29 catches in 53 matches (0.55 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 54 × 40% · Batting 52 × 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 32 · 4th grade 1). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 33 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 29 catches + 4 run outs (1 direct, 3 assisted) in 53 matches — 0.62 per match.
- Batting
- 907 runs in 50 innings, adjusted average 19.2, strike rate 58.3. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 21 wickets from 79.2 overs across 22 matches bowled in (of 53 played) — 0.95 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
