Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 39 imported matches (+0.8)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 10.9 over 22 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Out for 0 in 14% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 23 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 51 × 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 24). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 24 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 9 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 39 matches — 0.26 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 22 innings at 10.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 37 wickets in 33 matches bowled in (of 39 played) — 1.12 per match at 24.7, economy 5.44, strike rate 27.2.
