Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 36 imported matches (+0.7)
Critical recommendations
29 of 35 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
Out for 0 in 10% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.78 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 16.7.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 25 balls.
- ✓ Safe hands — 28 catches in 36 matches (0.78 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 18 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 60 × 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 36). 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
- Keeping: 21 catches + 0 stumpings + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 36 matches — 0.58 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 38 innings at 20.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 12 wickets in 12 matches bowled in (of 36 played) — 0.33 per match at 16.7, economy 4.00, strike rate 25.0.
