Stephen Blacker
Representative pathway — 0 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 20 imported matches (+0.4)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 34.5 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
1.20 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 24 catches in 20 matches (1.20 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 51 × 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 12). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 12 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Keeping: 22 catches + 1 stumpings + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 20 matches — 1.25 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 19 innings at 15.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
