Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 48 imported matches (+1.0)
Critical recommendations
21 of 29 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
Strengths
- ✓ Scores quickly (SR 94.9) without sacrificing consistency.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 128.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 24 balls.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 15 × 40% · Batting 76 × 30% · Bowling 57 × 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 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: 9 catches + 2 run outs (0 direct, 2 assisted) in 48 matches — 0.23 per match.
- Batting
- 885 runs in 34 innings, adjusted average 29.9, strike rate 94.9. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 36 wickets in 35 matches bowled in (of 48 played) — 1.03 per match at 20.0, economy 5.06, strike rate 23.7.
