Jakob Gunson
A front-loaded hundred: a quick first fifty off 18 balls (SR 278), then 50 to 100 at a steadier 37 balls (SR 135).
Representative pathway — 4 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Premier or state pathway — 8 matches (+3.2)
- ● Body of work — 21 imported matches (+0.4)
Critical recommendations
7 of 14 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.
0.43 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 36.5.
- ✓ Scores quickly (SR 113.8) without sacrificing consistency.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 108.
- ✓ Safe hands — 9 catches in 21 matches (0.43 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 24 × 40% · Batting 71 × 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
- ×0.51 for the level played (1st grade 7 · 2nd grade 1 · Club 12). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 20 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 6 catches + 2 run outs (0 direct, 2 assisted) in 21 matches — 0.38 per match.
- Batting
- 528 runs in 17 innings, adjusted average 36.5, strike rate 113.8. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 0 wickets from 1.2 overs across 2 matches bowled in (of 21 played) — 0.00 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
