Riley Wood
The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 86 balls (SR 58), then 50 to 100 in just 65 (SR 77) — more than double the tempo.
Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 51 imported matches (+1.0)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 14.3 over 45 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Out for 0 in 16% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
1.12 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 57 catches in 51 matches (1.12 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- ✓ Sharp glovework — 9 stumpings.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 83 × 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
- ×0.30 for the level played (Club 34). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 34 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Keeping: 51 catches + 9 stumpings + 6 run outs (2 direct, 4 assisted) in 51 matches — 1.29 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 45 innings at 14.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 1 wicket from 6.0 overs across 2 matches bowled in (of 51 played) — 0.02 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
