Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 33 imported matches (+0.7)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 6.2 over 24 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Economy of 3.20 is excellent but a wicket every 40 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
0.15 dismissals per match across 33 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.20.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 18 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 55 × 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 33). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- No match in the last 2 years, so not ranked. The rating shown is from the career.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 5 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 33 matches — 0.15 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 24 innings at 6.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 31 wickets in 31 matches bowled in (of 33 played) — 1.00 per match at 21.5, economy 3.20, strike rate 40.3.
