Cooper Giddings (18)
Representative pathway — 9 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Premier or state pathway — 21 matches (+8.4)
- ● Body of work — 40 imported matches (+0.8)
Critical recommendations
16 of 31 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 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 — 14 catches in 40 matches (0.35 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 29 × 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
- ×0.66 for the level played (State competition 13 · Rep Div 1 13 · Club 14). 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: 10 catches + 4 run outs (4 direct, 0 assisted) in 40 matches — 0.35 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 37 innings at 17.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 6 wickets from 22.0 overs across 8 matches bowled in (of 40 played) — 0.15 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
