Neil Lowies (15)
Representative pathway — 11 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Premier or state pathway — 28 matches (+10.0)
- ● Body of work — 60 imported matches (+1.2)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 12.3 over 36 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Only 0.13 catches per match over 60 matches. Fielding is the first thing selectors compare when batting/bowling are close — make catching the priority: 30 high balls + 30 flat catches per session, and ask to field in the ring/slips where chances come.
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
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 16.8.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.28.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 13 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 68 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.66 for the level played (Rep Div 1 28 · Club 9). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 37 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 8 catches + 3 run outs (1 direct, 2 assisted) in 60 matches — 0.18 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 36 innings at 12.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 46 wickets in 52 matches bowled in (of 60 played) — 0.88 per match at 16.8, economy 3.28, strike rate 30.8.
