Representative pathway — 0 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 17 imported matches (+0.3)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 10.5 over 19 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Out for 0 in 21% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.47 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 17.7.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 22 balls.
- ✓ Safe hands — 8 catches in 17 matches (0.47 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 44 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 53 × 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 17). 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: 8 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 17 matches — 0.53 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 19 innings at 10.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 15 wickets in 15 matches bowled in (of 17 played) — 1.00 per match at 17.7, economy 4.75, strike rate 22.4.
