Rory Middleton (34)
Representative pathway — 5 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Premier or state pathway — 11 matches (+4.4)
- ● Body of work — 14 imported matches (+0.3)
Critical recommendations
5 of 10 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.
Only 0.14 catches per match over 14 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.
Strengths
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 32.5.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 120.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 21 × 40% · Batting 65 × 30% · Bowling 27 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.64 for the level played (Rep Div 1 10 · 3rd grade 1 · Club 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
- Outfield: 2 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 14 matches — 0.14 per match.
- Batting
- 343 runs in 13 innings, adjusted average 32.5. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 3 wickets in 3 matches bowled in (of 14 played) — 0.21 per match at 23.3, economy 2.69, strike rate 52.0.
