Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 38 imported matches (+0.8)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 57.9 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Only 0.03 catches per match over 38 matches. Fielding is the first thing selectors compare when batting/bowling are close — make catching the priority: 30 high balls + 30 flat catches per session, and ask to field in the ring/slips where chances come.
Out for 0 in 17% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 100.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 0 × 40% · Batting 43 × 30% · Bowling 52 × 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 38). 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: 1 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 38 matches — 0.05 per match.
- Batting
- 763 runs in 41 innings, adjusted average 22.2, strike rate 57.9. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 32 wickets in 25 matches bowled in (of 38 played) — 1.28 per match at 20.1, economy 4.23, strike rate 28.4.
