Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 26 imported matches (+0.5)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 5.9 over 19 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
7 of 13 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.
Out for 0 in 10% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 9 catches in 26 matches (0.35 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 62 × 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
- ×0.30 for the level played (Club 9). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 9 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 9 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 26 matches — 0.38 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 19 innings at 5.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 5 wickets from 56.3 overs across 16 matches bowled in (of 26 played) — 0.31 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
