Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 65 imported matches (+1.3)
Critical recommendations
29 of 56 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 12% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Only 8% of 50+ scores become hundreds (12 fifties, 1 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
0.45 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 105.
- ✓ Safe hands — 29 catches in 65 matches (0.45 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- ✓ Sharp glovework — 7 stumpings.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 25 × 40% · Batting 42 × 30% · 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
- ×0.30 for the level played (Club 65). 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: 21 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 65 matches — 0.32 per match.
- Batting
- 1,385 runs in 60 innings, adjusted average 24.6. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 10 wickets from 44.0 overs across 16 matches bowled in (of 65 played) — 0.15 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
