Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 58 imported matches (+1.2)
Critical recommendations
0.29 keeping dismissals (WK catches + stumpings) per match. Work standing-up takes and leg-side stumpings — the fastest way for a keeper to add value.
0.72 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 101.
- ✓ Safe hands — 42 catches in 58 matches (0.72 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 12 × 40% · Batting 48 × 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 26). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 26 matches since 1 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 28 catches + 5 run outs (1 direct, 4 assisted) in 58 matches — 0.57 per match.
- Batting
- 1,070 runs in 52 innings, adjusted average 24.1, strike rate 80.4. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 1 wicket from 7.0 overs across 1 matches bowled in (of 58 played) — 0.02 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
