Representative pathway — 9 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Premier or state pathway — 20 matches (+8.0)
- ● Body of work — 56 imported matches (+1.1)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 9.3 over 42 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Out for 0 in 14% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 17.8.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.32.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 37 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 57 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.62 for the level played (Rep Div 1 20 · Club 10). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 30 matches since 31 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 19 catches + 3 run outs (0 direct, 3 assisted) in 56 matches — 0.39 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 42 innings at 9.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 62 wickets in 50 matches bowled in (of 56 played) — 1.24 per match at 17.8, economy 3.32, strike rate 32.1.
