Hayden O’Neill (15)
The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 41 balls (SR 122), then 50 to 100 in just 29 (SR 172) — more than double the tempo.
Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 53 imported matches (+1.1)
Critical recommendations
Out for 0 in 10% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Only 12% of 50+ scores become hundreds (7 fifties, 1 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
0.43 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 103.
- ✓ Safe hands — 23 catches in 53 matches (0.43 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 37 × 40% · Batting 66 × 30% · Bowling 28 × 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 40). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 40 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 23 catches + 3 run outs (1 direct, 2 assisted) in 53 matches — 0.49 per match.
- Batting
- 1,093 runs in 48 innings, adjusted average 27.0, strike rate 72.5. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 20 wickets in 17 matches bowled in (of 53 played) — 0.38 per match at 10.9, economy 3.44, strike rate 19.0.
