Matthew Cuconits
The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 80 balls (SR 63), then 50 to 100 in just 49 (SR 102) — more than double the tempo.
Representative pathway — 3 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Premier or state pathway — 3 matches (+1.2)
- ● Regional representative — 6 matches (+0.9)
- ● Body of work — 34 imported matches (+0.7)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 46.8 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
25 of 34 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
Only 11% of 50+ scores become hundreds (8 fifties, 1 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
Strengths
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 31.8.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 116.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 25 × 40% · Batting 70 × 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
- ×0.48 for the level played (2nd grade 3 · 3rd grade 6). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 9 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 10 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 34 matches — 0.32 per match.
- Batting
- 1,113 runs in 41 innings, adjusted average 31.8, strike rate 46.8. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 1 wicket from 7.0 overs across 2 matches bowled in (of 34 played) — 0.03 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
