Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 32 imported matches (+0.6)
Critical recommendations
23 of 29 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
0.78 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Scores quickly (SR 124.2) without sacrificing consistency.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 105.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 22 balls.
- ✓ Safe hands — 25 catches in 32 matches (0.78 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 78 × 40% · Batting 72 × 30% · Bowling 51 × 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 30). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 30 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 25 catches + 4 run outs (3 direct, 1 assisted) in 32 matches — 0.91 per match.
- Batting
- 786 runs in 32 innings, adjusted average 26.9, strike rate 124.2. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 17 wickets in 16 matches bowled in (of 32 played) — 1.06 per match at 19.9, economy 5.35, strike rate 22.4.
