Coming off the bench in all four Challenge Cup appearances, Kervalishvili consistently makes his minutes count through disciplined defensive work, averaging three and a half tackles per outing with a standout eight-tackle performance showing what he is capable of at his best. His carrying numbers are modest but functional for a replacement role, with a peak of five carries for nine metres in a single match suggesting he can shift momentum when called upon. He is a tidy, reliable finisher who earns his place through defensive consistency rather than ball-in-hand adventure.
