Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 50 imported matches (+1.0)
Critical recommendations
Going at 6.83 an over. Tighten the stock ball: hit a consistent length, cut out the 4-ball (short and wide / overpitched on the pads).
0.16 dismissals per match across 50 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 102.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 15 × 40% · Batting 50 × 30% · Bowling 48 × 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 37). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 37 matches since 29 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 8 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 50 matches — 0.16 per match.
- Batting
- 1,066 runs in 50 innings, adjusted average 23.9, strike rate 76.4. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 17 wickets in 28 matches bowled in (of 50 played) — 0.61 per match at 31.5, economy 6.83, strike rate 27.6.
