Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 59 imported matches (+1.2)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 7.0 over 31 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
13 of 22 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.
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.
0.22 dismissals per match across 59 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 12.3.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.72.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 8 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 62 × 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 11). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 11 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 13 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 59 matches — 0.22 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 31 innings at 7.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 127 wickets in 59 matches — 2.15 per match at 12.3, economy 2.72, strike rate 27.2.
