Representative pathway — 7 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Premier or state pathway — 12 matches (+4.8)
- ● Regional representative — 8 matches (+1.2)
- ● Body of work — 50 imported matches (+1.0)
Critical recommendations
Out for 0 in 10% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.68 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 121.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.19.
- ✓ Safe hands — 34 catches in 50 matches (0.68 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 73 × 40% · Batting 65 × 30% · Bowling 46 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.73 for the level played (1st grade 12 · 2nd grade 8 · Club 1). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 21 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 34 catches + 6 run outs (5 direct, 1 assisted) in 50 matches — 0.80 per match.
- Batting
- 1,118 runs in 48 innings, adjusted average 26.2, strike rate 69.1. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 115 wickets in 47 matches bowled in (of 50 played) — 2.45 per match at 20.1, economy 3.19, strike rate 37.8.
