Representative pathway — 2 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Regional representative — 10 matches (+1.5)
- ● Body of work — 28 imported matches (+0.6)
Critical recommendations
Out for 0 in 18% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.43 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 154.
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 17.4.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 21 balls.
- ✓ Safe hands — 12 catches in 28 matches (0.43 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 17 × 40% · Batting 61 × 30% · Bowling 51 × 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 (3rd grade 6 · Club 18 · 4th grade 1 · 5th grade and below 3). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.

- No match in the last 2 years, so not ranked. The rating shown is from the career.
