James Hughes
Representative pathway — 4 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Regional representative — 21 matches (+3.1)
- ● Body of work — 34 imported matches (+0.7)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 50.0 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
0.47 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 16 catches in 34 matches (0.47 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- ✓ Sharp glovework — 7 stumpings.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 42 × 40% · Batting 45 × 30% · 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
- ×0.32 for the level played (2nd grade 4 · 3rd grade 7 · Club 13 · 4th grade 7 · 5th grade and below 3). 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: 15 catches + 7 stumpings + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 34 matches — 0.65 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- 450 runs in 26 innings, adjusted average 18.6, strike rate 50.0. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 2 wickets from 15.0 overs across 2 matches bowled in (of 34 played) — 0.06 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
