Representative pathway — 0 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 15 imported matches (+0.3)
Critical recommendations
10 of 13 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
Economy of 3.92 is excellent but a wicket every 42 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
0.67 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 36.0.
- ✓ Scores quickly (SR 92.2) without sacrificing consistency.
- ✓ Safe hands — 10 catches in 15 matches (0.67 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 56 × 40% · Batting 71 × 30% · Bowling 38 × 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 14). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 14 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 8 catches + 2 run outs (0 direct, 2 assisted) in 15 matches — 0.67 per match.
- Batting
- 476 runs in 15 innings, adjusted average 36.0, strike rate 92.3. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 10 wickets in 15 matches — 0.67 per match at 27.8, economy 3.92, strike rate 42.5.
