Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 49 imported matches (+1.0)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 9.7 over 29 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Out for 0 in 14% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Economy of 2.37 is excellent but a wicket every 44 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 21 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 45 × 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 49). 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 + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 49 matches — 0.22 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 29 innings at 9.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 22 wickets in 42 matches bowled in (of 49 played) — 0.52 per match at 17.6, economy 2.37, strike rate 44.4.
