Matthew Barlow
The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 65 balls (SR 77), then 50 to 100 in just 49 (SR 102) — more than double the tempo.
Representative pathway — 0 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 10 imported matches (+0.2)
Critical recommendations
Economy of 3.58 is excellent but a wicket every 43 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
0.40 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 45.9.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 108.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.58.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 33 × 40% · Batting 82 × 30% · Bowling 49 × 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 10). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 10 matches since 28 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 4 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 10 matches — 0.40 per match.
- Batting
- 417 runs in 10 innings, adjusted average 45.9, strike rate 75.7. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 8 wickets in 7 matches bowled in (of 10 played) — 1.14 per match at 25.5, economy 3.58, strike rate 42.8.
