Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 48 imported matches (+1.0)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 12.6 over 41 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
10 of 17 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.
1.1 wides/no-balls per over is gifting runs and momentum. Groove the run-up and release with target bowling — a cone on a 4th-stump line, 30+ balls per session.
Only 0.13 catches per match over 48 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 17.4.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 20 balls.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 26 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 52 × 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 27). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 27 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 5 catches + 4 run outs (2 direct, 2 assisted) in 48 matches — 0.19 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 41 innings at 12.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 39 wickets in 46 matches bowled in (of 48 played) — 0.85 per match at 17.4, economy 5.33, strike rate 19.6.
