Thomas Blackman (17)
Representative pathway — 3 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Premier or state pathway — 6 matches (+2.4)
- ● Body of work — 25 imported matches (+0.5)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 14.1 over 23 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Out for 0 in 26% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.60 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.67.
- ✓ Safe hands — 15 catches in 25 matches (0.60 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 62 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 55 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.45 for the level played (State competition 5 · Rep Div 2 6 · Club 14). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- No match in the last 2 years, so not ranked. The rating shown is from the career.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 15 catches + 3 run outs (1 direct, 2 assisted) in 25 matches — 0.72 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 23 innings at 14.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 20 wickets in 23 matches bowled in (of 25 played) — 0.87 per match at 21.1, economy 3.67, strike rate 34.5.
