Representative pathway — 11 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Premier or state pathway — 27 matches (+10.0)
- ● Body of work — 47 imported matches (+0.9)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 60.7 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
0.47 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 109.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.78.
- ✓ Safe hands — 22 catches in 47 matches (0.47 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 56 × 40% · Batting 68 × 30% · Bowling 41 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.53 for the level played (2nd grade 17 · 3rd grade 10). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 27 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 22 catches + 3 run outs (3 direct, 0 assisted) in 47 matches — 0.53 per match.
- Batting
- 1,097 runs in 44 innings, adjusted average 27.2, strike rate 60.7. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 43 wickets in 39 matches bowled in (of 47 played) — 1.10 per match at 24.3, economy 3.78, strike rate 38.6.
