Representative pathway — 4 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Division 1 representative (+4)
- ● Body of work — 20 imported matches (+0.4)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 7.9 over 10 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
5 of 8 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.
Only 0.10 catches per match over 20 matches. Fielding is the first thing selectors compare when batting/bowling are close — make catching the priority: 30 high balls + 30 flat catches per session, and ask to field in the ring/slips where chances come.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 0 × 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
- ×0.30 for the level played (Club 20). 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: 2 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 20 matches — 0.20 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 10 innings at 7.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 16 wickets from 81.0 overs across 17 matches bowled in (of 20 played) — 0.94 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
