Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 58 imported matches (+1.2)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 60.5 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (9 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 21 catches in 58 matches (0.36 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 40 × 40% · Batting 46 × 30% · 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 34). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 34 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 21 catches + 4 run outs (1 direct, 3 assisted) in 58 matches — 0.43 per match.
- Batting
- 1,295 runs in 60 innings, adjusted average 26.6, strike rate 60.5. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 0 wickets from 3.0 overs across 2 matches bowled in (of 58 played) — 0.00 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
