- ● Body of work — 20 imported matches (+0.4)
Critical recommendations
Out for 0 in 12% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.55 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 16.2.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 24 balls.
- ✓ Safe hands — 11 catches in 20 matches (0.55 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 54 × 40% · Batting 48 × 30% · Bowling 59 × 30%. 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 14). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 14 matches since 2 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 11 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 20 matches — 0.60 per match.
- Batting
- 218 runs in 16 innings, adjusted average 17.9, strike rate 84.9. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 24 wickets in 17 matches bowled in (of 20 played) — 1.41 per match at 16.3, economy 3.99, strike rate 24.5.
