Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 28 imported matches (+0.6)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 3.9 over 22 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Out for 0 in 32% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Economy of 3.01 is excellent but a wicket every 51 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 21 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 31 × 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 28). 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: 7 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 28 matches — 0.25 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 22 innings at 3.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 9 wickets in 24 matches bowled in (of 28 played) — 0.38 per match at 25.8, economy 3.01, strike rate 51.3.
