Representative pathway — 0 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 17 imported matches (+0.3)
Critical recommendations
6 of 9 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 12% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.65 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Effective lower-order runs — adjusted average 47.7 (frequently not out).
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 102.
- ✓ Safe hands — 11 catches in 17 matches (0.65 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- ✓ Sharp glovework — 7 stumpings.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 86 × 40% · Batting 49 × 30% · 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 1). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 1 match since 1 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Keeping: 5 catches + 7 stumpings + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 17 matches — 0.71 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- 551 runs in 17 innings, adjusted average 47.7, strike rate 73.2. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 1 wicket from 0.3 overs across 1 matches bowled in (of 17 played) — 0.06 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
