Representative pathway — 0 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 21 imported matches (+0.4)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 7.4 over 16 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Only 0.14 catches per match over 21 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 12% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 9.9.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.21.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 18 balls.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 32 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 71 × 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 17). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 17 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 3 catches + 3 run outs (2 direct, 1 assisted) in 21 matches — 0.29 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 16 innings at 7.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 20 wickets in 18 matches bowled in (of 21 played) — 1.11 per match at 9.9, economy 3.21, strike rate 18.5.
