Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 29 imported matches (+0.6)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 11.9 over 37 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Out for 0 in 16% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 14 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 24 × 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 29). 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: 9 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 29 matches — 0.31 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 37 innings at 11.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 19 wickets in 13 matches bowled in (of 29 played) — 1.46 per match at 22.5, economy 4.11, strike rate 32.8.
