Representative pathway — 0 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 24 imported matches (+0.5)
Critical recommendations
9 of 17 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.
Going at 5.92 an over. Tighten the stock ball: hit a consistent length, cut out the 4-ball (short and wide / overpitched on the pads).
Strengths
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 38.4.
- ✓ Scores quickly (SR 129.2) without sacrificing consistency.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 114.
- ✓ Safe hands — 9 catches in 24 matches (0.38 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 41 × 40% · Batting 79 × 30% · Bowling 30 × 30%. 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 22). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 22 matches since 30 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 9 catches + 3 run outs (3 direct, 0 assisted) in 24 matches — 0.50 per match.
- Batting
- 677 runs in 21 innings, adjusted average 38.4, strike rate 129.3. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 10 wickets in 15 matches bowled in (of 24 played) — 0.67 per match at 35.2, economy 5.92, strike rate 35.7.
