Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 35 imported matches (+0.7)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 61.1 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Out for 0 in 15% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.43 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 31.8.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 2 hundred(s), best of 154.
- ✓ Safe hands — 15 catches in 35 matches (0.43 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 41 × 40% · Batting 61 × 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 35). 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: 15 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 35 matches — 0.43 per match.
- Batting
- 1,136 runs in 41 innings, adjusted average 31.8, strike rate 61.1. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 2 wickets from 17.7 overs across 7 matches bowled in (of 35 played) — 0.06 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
