Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 30 imported matches (+0.6)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 13.6 over 32 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Out for 0 in 12% 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 23 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 43 × 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 12). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 12 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 7 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 30 matches — 0.27 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 32 innings at 13.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 14 wickets in 15 matches bowled in (of 30 played) — 0.93 per match at 27.4, economy 4.51, strike rate 36.4.
