Representative pathway — 7 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Premier or state pathway — 15 matches (+6.0)
- ● Body of work — 38 imported matches (+0.8)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 57.4 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
16 of 19 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
Economy of 3.72 is excellent but a wicket every 41 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.72.
- ✓ Safe hands — 14 catches in 38 matches (0.37 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 43 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 40 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.63 for the level played (Rep Div 1 24 · Club 11). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 35 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 14 catches + 4 run outs (1 direct, 3 assisted) in 38 matches — 0.47 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 28 innings at 18.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 37 wickets in 37 matches bowled in (of 38 played) — 1.00 per match at 25.5, economy 3.72, strike rate 41.1.
