Representative pathway — 7 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Division 1 representative (+4)
- ● Premier or state pathway — 6 matches (+2.4)
- ● Body of work — 22 imported matches (+0.4)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 54.6 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
9 of 15 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
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 36.6.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.70.
- ✓ Safe hands — 8 catches in 22 matches (0.36 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 33 × 40% · Batting 63 × 30% · Bowling 49 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.38 for the level played (Rep Div 1 6 · Club 16). 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: 7 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 22 matches — 0.32 per match.
- Batting
- 575 runs in 19 innings, adjusted average 36.6, strike rate 54.6. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 23 wickets in 21 matches bowled in (of 22 played) — 1.10 per match at 23.3, economy 3.70, strike rate 37.8.
