Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 46 imported matches (+0.9)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 6.8 over 46 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Going at 5.72 an over. Tighten the stock ball: hit a consistent length, cut out the 4-ball (short and wide / overpitched on the pads).
Only 0.11 catches per match over 46 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 33% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 23 balls.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 9 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · 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 28). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 28 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 5 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 46 matches — 0.11 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 46 innings at 6.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 29 wickets in 28 matches bowled in (of 46 played) — 1.04 per match at 21.5, economy 5.72, strike rate 22.6.
