Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 68 imported matches (+1.4)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 13.3 over 58 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Out for 0 in 14% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.46 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 31 catches in 68 matches (0.46 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 53 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 25 × 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 40). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 40 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 31 catches + 6 run outs (2 direct, 4 assisted) in 68 matches — 0.54 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 58 innings at 13.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 44 wickets in 64 matches bowled in (of 68 played) — 0.69 per match at 15.9, economy 3.41, strike rate 28.0.
