Shaun Simpson
Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Regional representative — 7 matches (+1.1)
- ● Body of work — 9 imported matches (+0.2)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 9.6 over 5 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
4 of 4 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 14.1.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.43.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 23 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 64 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.78 for the level played (Rep Div 1 7). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 7 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 9 matches — 0.22 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 5 innings at 9.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 9 wickets in 6 matches bowled in (of 9 played) — 1.50 per match at 14.1, economy 3.43, strike rate 24.7.
