Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 30 imported matches (+0.6)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 13.9 over 30 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
0.40 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 11.3.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.83.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 24 balls.
- ✓ Safe hands — 12 catches in 30 matches (0.40 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 38 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 72 × 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 18). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 18 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 11 catches + 5 run outs (2 direct, 3 assisted) in 30 matches — 0.53 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 30 innings at 13.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 25 wickets in 27 matches bowled in (of 30 played) — 0.93 per match at 11.3, economy 2.83, strike rate 24.0.
