Representative pathway — 2 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Regional representative — 2 matches (+0.3)
- ● Body of work — 60 imported matches (+1.2)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 9.5 over 39 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
13 of 24 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 20% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.40 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 12.9.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.47.
- ✓ Safe hands — 24 catches in 60 matches (0.40 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 34 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 67 × 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 60). 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: 24 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 60 matches — 0.43 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 39 innings at 9.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 163 wickets in 59 matches bowled in (of 60 played) — 2.76 per match at 12.9, economy 2.47, strike rate 31.3.
