Julian Sands
The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 69 balls (SR 72), then 50 to 100 in just 47 (SR 106) — more than double the tempo.
Representative pathway — 2 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Regional representative — 12 matches (+1.8)
- ● Body of work — 23 imported matches (+0.5)
Critical recommendations
Going at 6.25 an over. Tighten the stock ball: hit a consistent length, cut out the 4-ball (short and wide / overpitched on the pads).
17 of 20 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
Strengths
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 38.9.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 120.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 24 × 40% · Batting 79 × 30% · Bowling 21 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.25 for the level played (Club 8 · 4th grade 2 · 5th grade and below 10). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 20 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 5 catches + 2 run outs (1 direct, 1 assisted) in 23 matches — 0.30 per match.
- Batting
- 792 runs in 23 innings, adjusted average 38.9, strike rate 67.7. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 6 wickets in 12 matches bowled in (of 23 played) — 0.50 per match at 37.7, economy 6.25, strike rate 36.2.
