Jacob Oskam (23)
The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 68 balls (SR 74), then 50 to 100 in just 29 (SR 172) — more than double the tempo.
Representative pathway — 8 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Division 1 representative (+4)
- ● Regional representative — 21 matches (+3.1)
- ● Body of work — 67 imported matches (+1.3)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 63.5 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.
Only 14% of 50+ scores become hundreds (6 fifties, 1 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
Strengths
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 100.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 4 × 40% · Batting 69 × 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
- ×0.31 for the level played (3rd grade 3 · 4th grade 18). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 21 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 15 catches + 3 run outs (3 direct, 0 assisted) in 67 matches — 0.27 per match.
- Batting
- 1,230 runs in 61 innings, adjusted average 22.5, strike rate 63.5. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 0 wickets from 9.0 overs across 5 matches bowled in (of 67 played) — 0.00 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
