The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 56 balls (SR 89), then 50 to 100 in just 45 (SR 111) — more than double the tempo.
Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 28 imported matches (+0.6)
Critical recommendations
Out for 0 in 11% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 10 catches in 28 matches (0.36 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 0 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · 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 1). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 1 match since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 10 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 28 matches — 0.39 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 28 innings at 20.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 3 wickets from 41.3 overs across 11 matches bowled in (of 28 played) — 0.11 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
