Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 47 imported matches (+0.9)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 12.9 over 38 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Only 0.13 catches per match over 47 matches. Fielding is the first thing selectors compare when batting/bowling are close — make catching the priority: 30 high balls + 30 flat catches per session, and ask to field in the ring/slips where chances come.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 14.9.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 23 balls.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 13 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 67 × 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 22). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 22 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 6 catches + 4 run outs (2 direct, 2 assisted) in 47 matches — 0.21 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 38 innings at 12.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 49 wickets in 29 matches bowled in (of 47 played) — 1.69 per match at 14.9, economy 3.89, strike rate 23.0.
