Matthew Toomey (26)
Representative pathway — 4 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Premier or state pathway — 6 matches (+2.4)
- ● Body of work — 55 imported matches (+1.1)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 9.2 over 45 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Only 0.11 catches per match over 55 matches. Fielding is the first thing selectors compare when batting/bowling are close — make catching the priority: 30 high balls + 30 flat catches per session, and ask to field in the ring/slips where chances come.
Out for 0 in 24% 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 11.0.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.10.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 21 balls.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 8 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 63 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.29 for the level played (Rep Div 2 6 · Club 49). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- No match in the last 2 years, so not ranked. The rating shown is from the career.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 5 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 55 matches — 0.09 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 45 innings at 9.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 43 wickets in 50 matches bowled in (of 55 played) — 0.86 per match at 11.0, economy 3.10, strike rate 21.3.
