Representative pathway — 0 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 20 imported matches (+0.4)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 56.9 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Out for 0 in 16% 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
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 34.2.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 101.
- ✓ Safe hands — 13 catches in 20 matches (0.65 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 41 × 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
- ×0.30 for the level played (Club 20). 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: 8 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 20 matches — 0.50 per match.
- Batting
- 514 runs in 19 innings, adjusted average 34.2, strike rate 56.9. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 8 wickets from 32.8 overs across 8 matches bowled in (of 20 played) — 1.00 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
