Grant Smith
Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 34 imported matches (+0.7)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 48.0 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
19 of 26 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
0.18 dismissals per match across 34 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.80.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 21 × 40% · Batting 47 × 30% · Bowling 53 × 30%. 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 12). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 12 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 5 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 34 matches — 0.15 per match.
- Batting
- 665 runs in 39 innings, adjusted average 22.7, strike rate 48.1. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 45 wickets in 32 matches bowled in (of 34 played) — 1.41 per match at 20.3, economy 3.80, strike rate 32.0.
