Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 55 imported matches (+1.1)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 61.1 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (5 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 20 × 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 19). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 19 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 13 catches + 3 run outs (2 direct, 1 assisted) in 55 matches — 0.29 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 59 innings at 22.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 6 wickets from 17.3 overs across 6 matches bowled in (of 55 played) — 0.11 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
