Joel Van Der Weegan
Representative pathway — 2 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Regional representative — 10 matches (+1.5)
- ● Body of work — 28 imported matches (+0.6)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 52.6 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
0.75 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 21 catches in 28 matches (0.75 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 45 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · 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
- ×0.28 for the level played (Club 18 · 4th grade 4 · 5th grade and below 6). 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
- Keeping: 21 catches + 3 stumpings + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 28 matches — 0.86 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 33 innings at 15.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 12 wickets from 48.8 overs across 11 matches bowled in (of 28 played) — 0.43 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
