Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Regional representative — 5 matches (+0.8)
- ● Body of work — 10 imported matches (+0.2)
Critical recommendations
3 of 5 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.
Economy of 3.24 is excellent but a wicket every 43 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
Strengths
- ✓ Effective lower-order runs — adjusted average 41.4 (frequently not out).
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 33 × 40% · Batting 67 × 30% · Bowling 42 × 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 10). 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: 3 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 10 matches — 0.30 per match.
- Batting
- 276 runs in 10 innings, adjusted average 41.4, strike rate 76.8. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 7 wickets in 8 matches bowled in (of 10 played) — 0.88 per match at 23.1, economy 3.24, strike rate 42.9.
