Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 61 imported matches (+1.2)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 14.4 over 59 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Out for 0 in 10% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (5 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
0.41 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 25 catches in 61 matches (0.41 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 67 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · 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 14). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 14 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 25 catches + 3 run outs (0 direct, 3 assisted) in 61 matches — 0.46 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 59 innings at 14.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 6 wickets from 29.0 overs across 9 matches bowled in (of 61 played) — 0.10 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
