- ● Premier or state pathway — 10 matches (+4.0)
- ● Body of work — 12 imported matches (+0.2)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 5.2 over 8 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
4 of 7 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.
Only 0.00 catches per match over 12 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 25% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Economy of 3.09 is excellent but a wicket every 44 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.09.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 0 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 58 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.58 for the level played (Rep Div 1 10 · Club 2). 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: 0 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 12 matches — 0.00 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 8 innings at 5.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 9 wickets in 10 matches bowled in (of 12 played) — 0.90 per match at 22.7, economy 3.09, strike rate 44.0.
