Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 61 imported matches (+1.2)
Critical recommendations
27 of 50 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.
Out for 0 in 14% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (4 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.75.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 28 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 58 × 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 61). 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: 14 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 61 matches — 0.25 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 57 innings at 16.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 35 wickets in 44 matches bowled in (of 61 played) — 0.80 per match at 21.0, economy 3.75, strike rate 33.5.
