Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 39 imported matches (+0.8)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 10.5 over 27 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Out for 0 in 11% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.59 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 23 catches in 39 matches (0.59 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 14 run outs.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 59 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 19 × 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 31). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 31 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 11 catches + 14 run outs (8 direct, 6 assisted) in 39 matches — 0.64 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 27 innings at 10.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 10 wickets in 16 matches bowled in (of 39 played) — 0.62 per match at 20.8, economy 4.97, strike rate 25.1.
