Representative pathway — 2 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Regional representative — 9 matches (+1.3)
- ● Body of work — 10 imported matches (+0.2)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 12.3 over 8 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
5 of 6 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
Out for 0 in 12% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.50 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.23.
- ✓ Safe hands — 5 catches in 10 matches (0.50 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 33 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 55 × 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 10). 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: 5 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 10 matches — 0.50 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 8 innings at 12.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 11 wickets in 9 matches bowled in (of 10 played) — 1.22 per match at 20.3, economy 3.23, strike rate 37.6.
