Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 59 imported matches (+1.2)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 8.3 over 40 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
12 of 23 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 18% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.17 dismissals per match across 59 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 19 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 60 × 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 59). 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: 10 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 59 matches — 0.17 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 40 innings at 8.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 29 wickets in 52 matches bowled in (of 59 played) — 0.56 per match at 18.9, economy 3.61, strike rate 31.4.
