Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 45 imported matches (+0.9)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 11.5 over 18 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Out for 0 in 17% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.56 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 13.8.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.63.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 23 balls.
- ✓ Safe hands — 25 catches in 45 matches (0.56 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 49 × 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 31). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 31 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 25 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 45 matches — 0.56 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 18 innings at 11.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 67 wickets in 41 matches bowled in (of 45 played) — 1.63 per match at 13.8, economy 3.63, strike rate 22.7.
