Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 39 imported matches (+0.8)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 3.5 over 34 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
13 of 24 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.
Out for 0 in 32% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.21 dismissals per match across 39 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 23 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 38 × 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 39). 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: 6 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 39 matches — 0.21 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 34 innings at 3.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 19 wickets in 37 matches bowled in (of 39 played) — 0.51 per match at 19.7, economy 4.58, strike rate 25.8.
