The Next Level

Only 11 make a country, a Shield XI, or a BBL side. This board hunts the few who are on track to them: players active in the last three seasons who have played genuine representative cricket, ranked within their own state and age group — a 14-year-old judged against 14-year-olds, not against adults. The top 10 per bucket.

Top 1 for QLD · U16, ranked by age-relative rep performance (“Age rank” = percentile of their rep batting/bowling within the age group), so the order matches the “▸” reasons — each of which compares the player to the median of their own age group. Numbers sharpen as full histories finish importing.
