Representative pathway — 0 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 21 imported matches (+0.4)
Critical recommendations
14 of 19 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
Strengths
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 109.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.38.
- ✓ Safe hands — 8 catches in 21 matches (0.38 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 41 × 40% · Batting 57 × 30% · Bowling 47 × 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 18). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 18 matches since 31 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 8 catches + 2 run outs (0 direct, 2 assisted) in 21 matches — 0.48 per match.
- Batting
- 444 runs in 20 innings, adjusted average 23.3, strike rate 82.8. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 19 wickets in 16 matches bowled in (of 21 played) — 1.19 per match at 19.8, economy 3.38, strike rate 35.2.
