Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Regional representative — 2 matches (+0.3)
- ● Body of work — 14 imported matches (+0.3)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 11.7 over 12 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
6 of 12 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.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 23 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 50 × 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 (Rep Div 2 2 · Club 10). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 12 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 3 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 14 matches — 0.29 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 12 innings at 11.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 17 wickets in 14 matches — 1.21 per match at 27.4, economy 4.32, strike rate 38.1.
