Representative pathway — 0 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 18 imported matches (+0.4)
Critical recommendations
Going at 5.57 an over. Tighten the stock ball: hit a consistent length, cut out the 4-ball (short and wide / overpitched on the pads).
7 of 10 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
Strengths
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 45.6.
- ✓ Scores quickly (SR 117.9) without sacrificing consistency.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 114.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 18 × 40% · Batting 83 × 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 16). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 16 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 4 catches + 2 run outs (0 direct, 2 assisted) in 18 matches — 0.33 per match.
- Batting
- 513 runs in 15 innings, adjusted average 45.6, strike rate 117.9. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 7 wickets from 23.0 overs across 8 matches bowled in (of 18 played) — 0.88 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
