Dominic Hird (32)
Representative pathway — 6 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Premier or state pathway — 15 matches (+6.0)
- ● Body of work — 16 imported matches (+0.3)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 13.9 over 13 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
4 of 8 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 0.06 catches per match over 16 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
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 13.8.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.88.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 15 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 61 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.74 for the level played (Rep Div 1 15 · Club 1). 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: 1 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 16 matches — 0.12 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 13 innings at 14.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 16 wickets in 14 matches bowled in (of 16 played) — 1.14 per match at 13.8, economy 2.88, strike rate 28.7.
