Representative pathway — 0 pathway points in the overall rating

  • ● Body of work — 11 imported matches (+0.2)

Critical recommendations

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

5 of 10 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.

medium Bowling
Tight but not threatening

Economy of 2.90 is excellent but a wicket every 45 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

Strengths

  • ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 35.9.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.90.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 23 × 40% · Batting 55 × 30% · Bowling 55 × 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 11). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
No match in the last 2 years, so not ranked. The rating shown is from the career.
Fielding
Outfield: 3 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 11 matches — 0.27 per match.
Batting
362 runs in 11 innings, adjusted average 35.9. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
4 wickets in 5 matches bowled in (of 11 played) — 0.80 per match at 21.8, economy 2.90, strike rate 45.0.
