Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 55 imported matches (+1.1)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 57.9 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 (10 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
0.49 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 31.9.
- ✓ Safe hands — 27 catches in 55 matches (0.49 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 33 × 40% · Batting 50 × 30% · 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 55). 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: 27 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 55 matches — 0.53 per match.
- Batting
- 1,554 runs in 55 innings, adjusted average 31.9, strike rate 57.9. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 6 wickets from 42.7 overs across 11 matches bowled in (of 55 played) — 0.11 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
