Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 51 imported matches (+1.0)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 13.6 over 49 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
29 of 49 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.
Out for 0 in 16% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 15.7.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 23 balls.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 30 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 65 × 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 51). 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: 16 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 51 matches — 0.33 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 49 innings at 13.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 83 wickets in 48 matches bowled in (of 51 played) — 1.73 per match at 15.7, economy 4.12, strike rate 22.9.
