Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 45 imported matches (+0.9)
Critical recommendations
15 of 20 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
0.51 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 31.0.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 117.
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 14.6.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.23.
- ✓ Safe hands — 23 catches in 45 matches (0.51 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 62 × 40% · Batting 51 × 30% · Bowling 66 × 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 40). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 40 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 22 catches + 6 run outs (3 direct, 3 assisted) in 45 matches — 0.62 per match.
- Batting
- 697 runs in 30 innings, adjusted average 31.0, strike rate 70.9. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 50 wickets in 38 matches bowled in (of 45 played) — 1.32 per match at 14.6, economy 3.23, strike rate 27.1.
