Brendan Roberts
The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 56 balls (SR 89), then 50 to 100 in just 31 (SR 161) — more than double the tempo.
Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 72 imported matches (+1.4)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 64.6 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
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 107.
- ✓ Safe hands — 26 catches in 72 matches (0.36 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 30 × 40% · Batting 63 × 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 20). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 20 matches since 1 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 19 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 72 matches — 0.28 per match.
- Batting
- 1,361 runs in 75 innings, adjusted average 18.9, strike rate 64.6. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 3 wickets from 9.0 overs across 2 matches bowled in (of 72 played) — 0.04 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
