Representative pathway — 0 pathway points in the overall rating

  • ● Body of work — 8 imported matches (+0.2)

Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 45.8 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

3 of 6 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.

Strengths

  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 13.3.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.69.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 35 × 40% · Batting 36 × 30% · 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 8). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 8 matches since 29 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 2 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 8 matches — 0.38 per match.
Batting
125 runs in 7 innings, adjusted average 20.4, strike rate 45.8. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
18 wickets in 8 matches — 2.25 per match at 13.3, economy 2.69, strike rate 29.7.
