Representative pathway — 0 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 9 imported matches (+0.2)
Critical recommendations
Out for 0 in 12% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Economy of 3.54 is excellent but a wicket every 44 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.54.
- ✓ Reliable in the field — contributes a dismissal every second match.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 53 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 50 × 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 9). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- No match in the last 2 years, so not ranked. The rating shown is from the career.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 3 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 9 matches — 0.56 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 8 innings at 20.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 11 wickets in 9 matches — 1.22 per match at 25.8, economy 3.54, strike rate 43.7.
