Damian Wickham
Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 49 imported matches (+1.0)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 54.0 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Out for 0 in 12% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.71 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 — 2 hundred(s), best of 151.
- ✓ Safe hands — 35 catches in 49 matches (0.71 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 39 × 40% · Batting 34 × 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 49). 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
- Keeping: 21 catches + 4 stumpings + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 49 matches — 0.53 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- 910 runs in 41 innings, adjusted average 24.4, strike rate 54.0. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 6 wickets from 28.0 overs across 6 matches bowled in (of 49 played) — 0.12 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
