Richard Arbon
Representative pathway — 3 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Premier or state pathway — 7 matches (+2.8)
- ● Body of work — 28 imported matches (+0.6)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 48.3 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
0.79 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 22 catches in 28 matches (0.79 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 10 × 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
- ×0.36 for the level played (State competition 7 · Club 21). 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: 16 catches + 2 stumpings + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 28 matches — 0.68 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 25 innings at 17.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 7 wickets from 33.8 overs across 10 matches bowled in (of 28 played) — 0.25 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
