Representative pathway — 2 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Regional representative — 4 matches (+0.6)
- ● Body of work — 85 imported matches (+1.7)
Critical recommendations
Only 14% of 50+ scores become hundreds (6 fifties, 1 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
0.48 keeping dismissals (WK catches + stumpings) per match. Work standing-up takes and leg-side stumpings — the fastest way for a keeper to add value.
0.79 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 105.
- ✓ Safe hands — 67 catches in 85 matches (0.79 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 26 × 40% · Batting 54 × 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
- ×0.32 for the level played (Rep Div 1 5 · Club 80). 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: 29 catches + 3 run outs (3 direct, 0 assisted) in 85 matches — 0.38 per match.
- Batting
- 1,566 runs in 81 innings, adjusted average 20.5, strike rate 85.5. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 4 wickets from 32.8 overs across 12 matches bowled in (of 85 played) — 0.05 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
