Representative pathway — 0 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 16 imported matches (+0.3)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 14.7 over 15 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Only 0.13 catches per match over 16 matches. Fielding is the first thing selectors compare when batting/bowling are close — make catching the priority: 30 high balls + 30 flat catches per session, and ask to field in the ring/slips where chances come.
Out for 0 in 13% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Economy of 3.50 is excellent but a wicket every 41 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.50.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 16 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 54 × 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 14). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 14 matches since 30 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 2 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 16 matches — 0.19 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 15 innings at 14.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 21 wickets in 16 matches — 1.31 per match at 23.9, economy 3.50, strike rate 40.9.
