Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 44 imported matches (+0.9)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 60.3 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
20 of 38 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.
Out for 0 in 12% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.43 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 19 catches in 44 matches (0.43 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 46 × 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
- ×0.30 for the level played (Club 20). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 20 matches since 1 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 19 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 44 matches — 0.45 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 42 innings at 16.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 10 wickets from 45.0 overs across 9 matches bowled in (of 44 played) — 0.23 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
