Representative pathway — 0 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 15 imported matches (+0.3)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 11.0 over 12 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
0.47 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 13.8.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 16 balls.
- ✓ Safe hands — 7 catches in 15 matches (0.47 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 47 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 61 × 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 15). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 15 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 7 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 15 matches — 0.53 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 12 innings at 11.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 16 wickets in 13 matches bowled in (of 15 played) — 1.23 per match at 13.8, economy 5.14, strike rate 16.1.
