Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 41 imported matches (+0.8)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 1.9 over 31 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Only 0.02 catches per match over 41 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 36% 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 0 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 34 × 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 15). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 15 matches since 31 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 1 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 41 matches — 0.07 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 31 innings at 1.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 22 wickets in 33 matches bowled in (of 41 played) — 0.67 per match at 40.4, economy 4.26, strike rate 56.9.
