Representative pathway — 2 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Premier or state pathway — 4 matches (+1.6)
- ● Body of work — 23 imported matches (+0.5)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 8.5 over 21 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
7 of 9 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.
Only 0.04 catches per match over 23 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
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 8 × 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
- ×0.55 for the level played (State competition 4 · Club 6). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 10 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 1 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 23 matches — 0.09 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 21 innings at 8.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 10 wickets from 39.2 overs across 20 matches bowled in (of 23 played) — 0.43 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
