Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 37 imported matches (+0.7)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 7.9 over 28 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Only 0.14 catches per match over 37 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.
Out for 0 in 18% 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 9.0.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.35.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 16 balls.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 22 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 72 × 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 9). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 9 matches since 30 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 5 catches + 4 run outs (0 direct, 4 assisted) in 37 matches — 0.24 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 28 innings at 7.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 43 wickets in 34 matches bowled in (of 37 played) — 1.26 per match at 9.0, economy 3.35, strike rate 16.1.
