Representative pathway — 11 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Premier or state pathway — 29 matches (+10.0)
- ● Body of work — 47 imported matches (+0.9)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 12.6 over 22 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
10 of 17 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.
Only 0.09 catches per match over 47 matches. Fielding is the first thing selectors compare when batting/bowling are close — make catching the priority: 30 high balls + 30 flat catches per session, and ask to field in the ring/slips where chances come.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 12 × 40% · Batting 50 × 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
- ×0.75 for the level played (1st grade 17 · 2nd grade 12). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 29 matches since 1 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 4 catches + 3 run outs (3 direct, 0 assisted) in 47 matches — 0.15 per match.
- Batting
- 226 runs in 22 innings, adjusted average 12.6, strike rate 78.5. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 7 wickets from 30.0 overs across 12 matches bowled in (of 47 played) — 0.15 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
