Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 41 imported matches (+0.8)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 7.3 over 24 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
8 of 13 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.
Out for 0 in 21% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.23.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 26 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 52 × 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: 13 catches + 2 run outs (1 direct, 1 assisted) in 41 matches — 0.37 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 24 innings at 7.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 58 wickets in 41 matches — 1.41 per match at 18.4, economy 3.23, strike rate 34.2.
