Aaron Appleby
Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 43 imported matches (+0.9)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 14.3 over 39 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
15 of 30 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.
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 3.23 is excellent but a wicket every 41 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
0.23 dismissals per match across 43 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 0 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · 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
- ×0.30 for the level played (Club 5). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 5 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 9 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 43 matches — 0.23 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 39 innings at 14.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 21 wickets from 142.0 overs across 27 matches bowled in (of 43 played) — 0.78 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
