Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 33 imported matches (+0.7)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 14.2 over 32 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
12 of 22 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.
0.8 wides/no-balls per over is gifting runs and momentum. Groove the run-up and release with target bowling — a cone on a 4th-stump line, 30+ balls per session.
0.42 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 16.0.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 19 balls.
- ✓ Safe hands — 14 catches in 33 matches (0.42 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 45 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 60 × 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 32). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 32 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 13 catches + 5 run outs (1 direct, 4 assisted) in 33 matches — 0.55 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 32 innings at 14.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 24 wickets in 30 matches bowled in (of 33 played) — 0.80 per match at 16.0, economy 5.10, strike rate 18.8.
