Finlay Bean
The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 73 balls (SR 68), then 50 to 100 in just 40 (SR 125) — more than double the tempo.
Representative pathway — 7 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Premier or state pathway — 16 matches (+6.4)
- ● Body of work — 16 imported matches (+0.3)
Critical recommendations
10 of 14 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
0.50 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 41.7.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 3 hundred(s), best of 142.
- ✓ Safe hands — 8 catches in 16 matches (0.50 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 21 × 40% · Batting 86 × 30% · 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
- ×0.85 for the level played (1st grade 16). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 16 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 4 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 16 matches — 0.25 per match.
- Batting
- 603 runs in 17 innings, adjusted average 41.7, strike rate 73.2. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
