Oliver Gunning
The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 100 balls (SR 50), then 50 to 100 in just 37 (SR 135) — more than double the tempo.
Representative pathway — 11 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Premier or state pathway — 30 matches (+10.0)
- ● Body of work — 46 imported matches (+0.9)
Critical recommendations
Out for 0 in 11% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 38.8.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 4 hundred(s), best of 175.
- ✓ Safe hands — 18 catches in 46 matches (0.39 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 32 × 40% · Batting 86 × 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
- ×0.65 for the level played (1st grade 6 · 2nd grade 24). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 30 matches since 31 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 18 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 46 matches — 0.39 per match.
- Batting
- 1,550 runs in 46 innings, adjusted average 38.8, strike rate 75.7. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 1 wicket from 5.0 overs across 3 matches bowled in (of 46 played) — 0.02 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
