- ● Body of work — 67 imported matches (+1.3)
Critical recommendations
Out for 0 in 10% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Only 10% of 50+ scores become hundreds (9 fifties, 1 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
0.45 keeping dismissals (WK catches + stumpings) per match. Work standing-up takes and leg-side stumpings — the fastest way for a keeper to add value.
0.52 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Scores quickly (SR 110.2) without sacrificing consistency.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 145.
- ✓ Safe hands — 35 catches in 67 matches (0.52 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 37 × 40% · Batting 57 × 30% · Bowling not rated (weight redistributed). 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 29). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 29 matches since 30 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Keeping: 28 catches + 2 stumpings + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 67 matches — 0.45 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- 1,625 runs in 67 innings, adjusted average 26.4, strike rate 110.2. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 1 wicket from 6.0 overs across 4 matches bowled in (of 67 played) — 0.01 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
