Representative pathway — 0 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 11 imported matches (+0.2)
Critical recommendations
Only 0.09 catches per match over 11 matches. Fielding is the first thing selectors compare when batting/bowling are close — make catching the priority: 30 high balls + 30 flat catches per session, and ask to field in the ring/slips where chances come.
Strengths
- ✓ Scores quickly (SR 98.1) without sacrificing consistency.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 108.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 8 × 40% · Batting 61 × 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 10). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 10 matches since 1 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 1 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 11 matches — 0.09 per match.
- Batting
- 204 runs in 11 innings, adjusted average 21.9, strike rate 98.1. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
