Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 31 imported matches (+0.6)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 56.8 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
0.42 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 15.1.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.63.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 25 balls.
- ✓ Safe hands — 13 catches in 31 matches (0.42 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 42 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 64 × 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 29). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 29 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 13 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 31 matches — 0.48 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 30 innings at 17.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 27 wickets in 26 matches bowled in (of 31 played) — 1.04 per match at 15.1, economy 3.63, strike rate 24.9.
