Representative pathway — 2 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Regional representative — 2 matches (+0.3)
- ● Body of work — 68 imported matches (+1.4)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 61.1 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
0.22 dismissals per match across 68 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 16 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling not rated (weight redistributed). Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.31 for the level played (State competition 2 · Club 66). 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: 14 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 68 matches — 0.22 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 61 innings at 15.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 27 wickets from 133.7 overs across 26 matches bowled in (of 68 played) — 0.40 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
