Tom McCluskey (15)
The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 70 balls (SR 71), then 50 to 100 in just 32 (SR 156) — more than double the tempo.
Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 34 imported matches (+0.7)
Critical recommendations
14 of 27 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.
Out for 0 in 14% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 104.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 22 × 40% · Batting 70 × 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
- ×0.30 for the level played (Club 27). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 27 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 5 catches + 4 run outs (1 direct, 3 assisted) in 34 matches — 0.26 per match.
- Batting
- 836 runs in 35 innings, adjusted average 29.4, strike rate 74.6. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 5 wickets from 13.0 overs across 6 matches bowled in (of 34 played) — 0.15 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
