Riki Boschma
The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 104 balls (SR 48), then 50 to 100 in just 73 (SR 68) — more than double the tempo.
Representative pathway — 8 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Premier or state pathway — 13 matches (+5.2)
- ● Regional representative — 10 matches (+1.5)
- ● Body of work — 42 imported matches (+0.8)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 51.3 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Out for 0 in 12% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.24 dismissals per match across 42 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 3 hundred(s), best of 110.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 14 × 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
- ×0.83 for the level played (1st grade 23 · Club 1). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 24 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 10 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 42 matches — 0.24 per match.
- Batting
- 1,044 runs in 48 innings, adjusted average 24.5, strike rate 51.3. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 2 wickets from 5.0 overs across 4 matches bowled in (of 42 played) — 0.05 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
