Matthew Feast
The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 72 balls (SR 69), then 50 to 100 in just 42 (SR 119) — more than double the tempo.
Representative pathway — 5 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 12 imported matches (+0.2)
- ● All-round value (+5)
Critical recommendations
Only 0.08 catches per match over 12 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.
8 of 10 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
Strengths
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 42.5.
- ✓ Scores quickly (SR 93.1) without sacrificing consistency.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 164.
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 13.4.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.21.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 25 balls.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 7 × 40% · Batting 84 × 30% · Bowling 65 × 30%. 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 12). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 12 matches since 2 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 1 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 12 matches — 0.08 per match.
- Batting
- 428 runs in 11 innings, adjusted average 42.5, strike rate 93.1. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 14 wickets in 8 matches bowled in (of 12 played) — 1.75 per match at 13.4, economy 3.21, strike rate 24.9.
