Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 46 imported matches (+0.9)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 8.9 over 40 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Out for 0 in 22% 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
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 17.8.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.34.
- ✓ Safe hands — 20 catches in 46 matches (0.43 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 37 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 54 × 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 16). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 16 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 20 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 46 matches — 0.48 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 40 innings at 8.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 81 wickets in 45 matches bowled in (of 46 played) — 1.80 per match at 17.8, economy 3.34, strike rate 31.9.
