Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 25 imported matches (+0.5)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 7.4 over 25 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
13 of 16 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.
1.0 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.
Going at 5.83 an over. Tighten the stock ball: hit a consistent length, cut out the 4-ball (short and wide / overpitched on the pads).
Out for 0 in 16% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.52 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 24 balls.
- ✓ Safe hands — 13 catches in 25 matches (0.52 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 57 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 45 × 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 25). 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: 13 catches + 3 run outs (3 direct, 0 assisted) in 25 matches — 0.64 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 25 innings at 7.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 19 wickets in 24 matches bowled in (of 25 played) — 0.79 per match at 23.8, economy 5.83, strike rate 24.5.
