Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Premier or state pathway — 3 matches (+1.2)
- ● Body of work — 9 imported matches (+0.2)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 4.3 over 7 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
3 of 4 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.
Economy of 3.16 is excellent but a wicket every 76 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 0 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 35 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.34 for the level played (Rep Div 1 3 · Club 6). 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: 0 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 9 matches — 0.00 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 7 innings at 4.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 5 wickets in 8 matches bowled in (of 9 played) — 0.62 per match at 40.2, economy 3.16, strike rate 76.4.
