Representative pathway — 3 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Premier or state pathway — 8 matches (+3.2)
- ● Body of work — 10 imported matches (+0.2)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 43.0 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
3 of 3 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
Strengths
- ✓ Effective lower-order runs — adjusted average 52.2 (frequently not out).
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 13.8.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.25.
- ✓ Reliable in the field — contributes a dismissal every second match.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 34 × 40% · Batting 60 × 30% · Bowling 66 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.29 for the level played (Club 2 · 4th grade 8). 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: 2 catches + 3 run outs (0 direct, 3 assisted) in 10 matches — 0.50 per match.
- Batting
- 209 runs in 6 innings, adjusted average 52.3, strike rate 43.0. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
