Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 25 imported matches (+0.5)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 14.1 over 25 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
15 of 24 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.
0.52 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 13 catches in 25 matches (0.52 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 49 × 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 25). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 25 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 10 catches + 4 run outs (2 direct, 2 assisted) in 25 matches — 0.56 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 25 innings at 14.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 4 wickets from 28.0 overs across 8 matches bowled in (of 25 played) — 0.16 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
