Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 53 imported matches (+1.1)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 47.9 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
0.19 dismissals per match across 53 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 162.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 9 × 40% · Batting 40 × 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 20). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 20 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 10 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 53 matches — 0.19 per match.
- Batting
- 1,007 runs in 51 innings, adjusted average 22.8, strike rate 47.9. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 8 wickets from 43.7 overs across 15 matches bowled in (of 53 played) — 0.15 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
