Representative pathway — 3 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Regional representative — 18 matches (+2.7)
- ● Body of work — 26 imported matches (+0.5)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 63.6 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Only 0.12 catches per match over 26 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.
Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (4 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.98.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 10 × 40% · Batting 48 × 30% · Bowling 57 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.24 for the level played (3rd grade 1 · Club 8 · 4th grade 5 · 5th grade and below 12). 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 + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 26 matches — 0.12 per match.
- Batting
- 575 runs in 24 innings, adjusted average 27.0, strike rate 63.6. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 42 wickets in 23 matches bowled in (of 26 played) — 1.83 per match at 19.9, economy 2.98, strike rate 40.0.
