Representative pathway — 2 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Regional representative — 7 matches (+1.1)
- ● Body of work — 23 imported matches (+0.5)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 12.5 over 24 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
18 of 23 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 12% 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
- ✓ Safe hands — 18 catches in 23 matches (0.78 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 62 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling not rated (weight redistributed). Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.40 for the level played (3rd grade 6 · 4th grade 1). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 7 matches since 29 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 18 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 23 matches — 0.83 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 24 innings at 12.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 7 wickets from 33.2 overs across 8 matches bowled in (of 23 played) — 0.30 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
