Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 30 imported matches (+0.6)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 53.2 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (5 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
1.33 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 40 catches in 30 matches (1.33 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 82 × 40% · Batting 49 × 30% · 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 18). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 18 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Keeping: 40 catches + 3 stumpings + 5 run outs (0 direct, 5 assisted) in 30 matches — 1.60 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- 685 runs in 31 innings, adjusted average 25.7, strike rate 53.2. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
