Justin Beard
Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 35 imported matches (+0.7)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 12.1 over 32 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Out for 0 in 22% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 13 catches in 35 matches (0.37 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 0 × 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 9). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 9 matches since 31 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 9 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 35 matches — 0.31 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 32 innings at 12.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 10 wickets from 82.0 overs across 16 matches bowled in (of 35 played) — 0.62 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
