Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 43 imported matches (+0.9)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 52.9 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
0.23 dismissals per match across 43 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 2 hundred(s), best of 127.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 29 × 40% · Batting 65 × 30% · Bowling 49 × 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 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: 8 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 43 matches — 0.21 per match.
- Batting
- 965 runs in 49 innings, adjusted average 23.7, strike rate 52.9. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 18 wickets in 21 matches bowled in (of 43 played) — 0.86 per match at 21.2, economy 3.24, strike rate 39.3.
