Representative pathway — 3 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Regional representative — 15 matches (+2.2)
- ● Body of work — 19 imported matches (+0.4)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 6.8 over 13 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
0.9 wides/no-balls per over is gifting runs and momentum. Groove the run-up and release with target bowling — a cone on a 4th-stump line, 30+ balls per session.
Out for 0 in 23% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.89 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 17 catches in 19 matches (0.89 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 66 × 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
- ×0.76 for the level played (Rep Div 1 15 · Club 4). 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
- Keeping: 14 catches + 2 stumpings + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 19 matches — 0.84 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 13 innings at 6.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 5 wickets from 20.8 overs across 4 matches bowled in (of 19 played) — 0.26 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
