Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 26 imported matches (+0.5)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 1.2 over 11 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
5 of 6 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 27% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.15 dismissals per match across 26 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 9 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 50 × 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 18). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 18 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 4 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 26 matches — 0.15 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 11 innings at 1.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 32 wickets in 26 matches — 1.23 per match at 21.9, economy 4.76, strike rate 27.7.
