Josh Smith (34)
Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 64 imported matches (+1.3)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 11.9 over 56 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Out for 0 in 20% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.80 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 51 catches in 64 matches (0.80 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- ✓ Sharp glovework — 11 stumpings.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 58 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 17 × 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 64). 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: 39 catches + 11 stumpings + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 64 matches — 0.80 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 56 innings at 11.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 10 wickets in 9 matches bowled in (of 64 played) — 0.16 per match at 24.7, economy 4.49, strike rate 33.0.
