Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Regional representative — 1 match (+0.1)
- ● Body of work — 22 imported matches (+0.4)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 52.8 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
0.32 keeping dismissals (WK catches + stumpings) per match. Work standing-up takes and leg-side stumpings — the fastest way for a keeper to add value.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 16.3.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.27.
- ✓ Safe hands — 8 catches in 22 matches (0.36 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 32 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 63 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.32 for the level played (1st grade 1 · Club 21). 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
- Keeping: 6 catches + 1 stumpings + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 22 matches — 0.32 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 23 innings at 17.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 18 wickets in 14 matches bowled in (of 22 played) — 1.29 per match at 16.3, economy 3.27, strike rate 30.0.
