Max Nairn (18)
The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 46 balls (SR 109), then 50 to 100 in just 36 (SR 139) — more than double the tempo.
Representative pathway — 3 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Regional representative — 12 matches (+1.8)
- ● Body of work — 61 imported matches (+1.2)
Critical recommendations
Out for 0 in 13% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.43 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 3.65.
- ✓ Safe hands — 26 catches in 61 matches (0.43 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 35 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 58 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.27 for the level played (Club 10 · 4th grade 5 · 5th grade and below 7). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 22 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 26 catches + 3 run outs (1 direct, 2 assisted) in 61 matches — 0.48 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 54 innings at 24.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 77 wickets in 56 matches bowled in (of 61 played) — 1.38 per match at 19.3, economy 3.65, strike rate 31.7.
