Representative pathway — 0 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 19 imported matches (+0.4)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 9.8 over 16 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
7 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.
Only 0.11 catches per match over 19 matches. Fielding is the first thing selectors compare when batting/bowling are close — make catching the priority: 30 high balls + 30 flat catches per session, and ask to field in the ring/slips where chances come.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 17.7.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 7 × 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
- ×0.30 for the level played (Club 19). 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: 2 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 19 matches — 0.11 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 16 innings at 9.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 36 wickets in 19 matches — 1.89 per match at 17.7, economy 3.99, strike rate 26.6.
