Representative pathway — 4 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Regional representative — 21 matches (+3.1)
- ● Body of work — 38 imported matches (+0.8)
Critical recommendations
Out for 0 in 10% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.50 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 19 catches in 38 matches (0.50 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 12 × 40% · Batting 50 × 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 31). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 31 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Keeping: 12 catches + 2 stumpings + 6 run outs (2 direct, 4 assisted) in 38 matches — 0.53 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- 806 runs in 38 innings, adjusted average 24.6, strike rate 70.8. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 3 wickets from 12.7 overs across 4 matches bowled in (of 38 played) — 0.08 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
