Representative pathway — 2 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 90 imported matches (+1.8)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 13.7 over 47 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Out for 0 in 17% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.59 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 53 catches in 90 matches (0.59 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 14 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · 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 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 23 catches + 2 run outs (0 direct, 2 assisted) in 90 matches — 0.28 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 47 innings at 13.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 5 wickets from 17.0 overs across 5 matches bowled in (of 90 played) — 0.06 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
