- ● Premier or state pathway — 8 matches (+3.2)
- ● Body of work — 65 imported matches (+1.3)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 5.7 over 25 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Out for 0 in 28% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 15.7.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.80.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 25 balls.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 36 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 64 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.45 for the level played (Rep Div 1 13 · Club 29). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 42 matches since 1 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 20 catches + 4 run outs (3 direct, 1 assisted) in 65 matches — 0.37 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 25 innings at 5.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 68 wickets in 64 matches bowled in (of 65 played) — 1.06 per match at 15.7, economy 3.80, strike rate 24.8.
