Representative pathway — 0 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 6 imported matches (+0.1)
Critical recommendations
0.9 wides/no-balls per over is gifting runs and momentum. Groove the run-up and release with target bowling — a cone on a 4th-stump line, 30+ balls per session.
Going at 5.60 an over. Tighten the stock ball: hit a consistent length, cut out the 4-ball (short and wide / overpitched on the pads).
Strengths
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 47.4.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 113.
- ✓ Safe hands — 7 catches in 6 matches (1.17 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 62 × 40% · Batting 71 × 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 6). 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: 7 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 6 matches — 1.17 per match.
- Batting
- 237 runs in 5 innings, adjusted average 47.4. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 4 wickets from 25.0 overs across 6 matches — 0.67 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
