Representative pathway — 0 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 8 imported matches (+0.2)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 13.1 over 5 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Economy of 2.93 is excellent but a wicket every 45 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 35 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 26 × 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 7). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 7 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 3 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 8 matches — 0.38 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 5 innings at 13.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 6 wickets in 8 matches — 0.75 per match at 22.0, economy 2.93, strike rate 45.0.
