- ● Regional representative — 2 matches (+0.3)
- ● Body of work — 21 imported matches (+0.4)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 11.7 over 15 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Only 0.10 catches per match over 21 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.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 16 × 40% · Batting 51 × 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
- ×0.33 for the level played (Rep Div 1 2 · Club 19). 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: 2 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 21 matches — 0.19 per match.
- Batting
- 120 runs in 15 innings, adjusted average 11.7, strike rate 84.5. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 19 wickets from 94.7 overs across 17 matches bowled in (of 21 played) — 1.12 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
