Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 28 imported matches (+0.6)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 6.2 over 10 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
5 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.
Out for 0 in 20% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 9 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 35 × 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 20). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 20 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 9 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 28 matches — 0.36 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 10 innings at 6.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 19 wickets in 26 matches bowled in (of 28 played) — 0.73 per match at 33.4, economy 4.35, strike rate 46.1.
