Representative pathway — 0 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 19 imported matches (+0.4)
Critical recommendations
11 of 15 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
Out for 0 in 17% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 33.8.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 105.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 25 × 40% · Batting 76 × 30% · 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 16). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 16 matches since 30 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 4 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 19 matches — 0.26 per match.
- Batting
- 522 runs in 18 innings, adjusted average 33.8, strike rate 71.8. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 4 wickets from 18.5 overs across 7 matches bowled in (of 19 played) — 0.21 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
