Joe Medew-Ewen
The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 89 balls (SR 56), then 50 to 100 in just 72 (SR 69) — more than double the tempo.
Representative pathway — 11 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Premier or state pathway — 28 matches (+10.0)
- ● Body of work — 45 imported matches (+0.9)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 47.2 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Out for 0 in 10% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Economy of 3.62 is excellent but a wicket every 42 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
Strengths
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 123.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.62.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 25 × 40% · Batting 62 × 30% · Bowling 43 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.85 for the level played (1st grade 28). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 28 matches since 28 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 13 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 45 matches — 0.29 per match.
- Batting
- 342 runs in 29 innings, adjusted average 16.3, strike rate 47.2. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 80 wickets in 45 matches — 1.78 per match at 25.1, economy 3.62, strike rate 41.6.
