Representative pathway — 0 pathway points in the overall rating

  • ● Body of work — 22 imported matches (+0.4)

Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 60.0 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

11 of 17 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.

Strengths

  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.54.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 33 × 40% · Batting 40 × 30% · Bowling 49 × 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 22). 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: 5 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 22 matches — 0.27 per match.
Batting
395 runs in 20 innings, adjusted average 22.7, strike rate 60.0. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
29 wickets in 19 matches bowled in (of 22 played) — 1.53 per match at 22.6, economy 3.54, strike rate 38.3.
