Xavier Hurley (16)
The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 62 balls (SR 81), then 50 to 100 in just 54 (SR 93) — more than double the tempo.
Representative pathway — 2 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Premier or state pathway — 2 matches (+0.8)
- ● Body of work — 38 imported matches (+0.8)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 56.3 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Out for 0 in 16% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 13.1.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.35.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 23 balls.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 29 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 68 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.41 for the level played (Rep Div 1 8 · Club 26). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 34 matches since 1 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 11 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 38 matches — 0.29 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 31 innings at 17.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 41 wickets in 30 matches bowled in (of 38 played) — 1.37 per match at 13.1, economy 3.35, strike rate 23.4.
