Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 38 imported matches (+0.8)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 7.7 over 22 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
7 of 14 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.
Out for 0 in 41% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.24 dismissals per match across 38 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 14.6.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.59.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 23 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 66 × 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 22). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 22 matches since 31 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 9 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 38 matches — 0.24 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 22 innings at 7.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 55 wickets in 33 matches bowled in (of 38 played) — 1.67 per match at 14.6, economy 2.59, strike rate 33.7.
