Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 53 imported matches (+1.1)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 5.2 over 42 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
10 of 17 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.
Only 0.13 catches per match over 53 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 17% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 18 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 33 × 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 53). 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: 7 catches + 3 run outs (3 direct, 0 assisted) in 53 matches — 0.19 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 42 innings at 5.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 31 wickets in 52 matches bowled in (of 53 played) — 0.60 per match at 16.7, economy 3.95, strike rate 25.3.
