Representative pathway — 6 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 27 imported matches (+0.5)
- ● All-round value (+5)
Critical recommendations
Out for 0 in 11% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Only 12% of 50+ scores become hundreds (7 fifties, 1 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
Strengths
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 35.4.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 170.
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 13.7.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.99.
- ✓ Safe hands — 10 catches in 27 matches (0.37 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 54 × 40% · Batting 86 × 30% · Bowling 69 × 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 28 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 10 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 27 matches — 0.37 per match.
- Batting
- 842 runs in 28 innings, adjusted average 35.4, strike rate 87.4. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 23 wickets in 16 matches bowled in (of 27 played) — 1.44 per match at 13.7, economy 2.99, strike rate 27.5.
