The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 49 balls (SR 102), then 50 to 100 in just 37 (SR 135) — more than double the tempo.
Representative pathway — 0 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 23 imported matches (+0.5)
Critical recommendations
10 of 20 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.
0.48 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 33.5.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 100.
- ✓ Safe hands — 11 catches in 23 matches (0.48 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 28 × 40% · Batting 44 × 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 15). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 15 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 6 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 23 matches — 0.30 per match.
- Batting
- 670 runs in 20 innings, adjusted average 33.5, strike rate 73.3. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 1 wicket from 7.0 overs across 2 matches bowled in (of 23 played) — 0.04 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
