Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 38 imported matches (+0.8)
Critical recommendations
0.68 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 45.0.
- ✓ Scores quickly (SR 128.6) without sacrificing consistency.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 3 hundred(s), best of 127.
- ✓ Safe hands — 26 catches in 38 matches (0.68 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 43 × 40% · Batting 79 × 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 29). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 29 matches since 29 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 17 catches + 2 run outs (1 direct, 1 assisted) in 38 matches — 0.50 per match.
- Batting
- 1,196 runs in 33 innings, adjusted average 45.0, strike rate 128.6. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 3 wickets from 19.0 overs across 3 matches bowled in (of 38 played) — 0.08 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
