Michael Falzon
Representative pathway — 3 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Regional representative — 17 matches (+2.5)
- ● Body of work — 19 imported matches (+0.4)
Critical recommendations
Only 0.11 catches per match over 19 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.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 10 × 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 17). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 17 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 2 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 19 matches — 0.11 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 18 innings at 15.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 3 wickets from 14.3 overs across 7 matches bowled in (of 19 played) — 0.16 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
