Representative pathway — 0 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 18 imported matches (+0.4)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 52.7 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
6 of 12 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.
0.17 dismissals per match across 18 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 0 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · 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
- ×0.30 for the level played (Club 1). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 1 match since 2 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 3 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 18 matches — 0.17 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 15 innings at 28.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 11 wickets from 63.5 overs across 13 matches bowled in (of 18 played) — 0.85 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
