Representative pathway — 2 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Regional representative — 9 matches (+1.3)
- ● Body of work — 37 imported matches (+0.7)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 7.9 over 29 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Out for 0 in 28% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 14.2.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.95.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 23 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 68 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.39 for the level played (Rep Div 1 9 · Club 28). 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: 10 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 37 matches — 0.27 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 29 innings at 7.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 51 wickets in 35 matches bowled in (of 37 played) — 1.46 per match at 14.2, economy 2.95, strike rate 28.9.
