- ● Premier or state pathway — 3 matches (+1.2)
- ● Body of work — 34 imported matches (+0.7)
Critical recommendations
22 of 26 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (6 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
0.41 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 31.9.
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 14.8.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.98.
- ✓ Safe hands — 14 catches in 34 matches (0.41 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 37 × 40% · Batting 47 × 30% · Bowling 60 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.35 for the level played (Rep Div 1 3 · Club 31). 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: 13 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 34 matches — 0.41 per match.
- Batting
- 868 runs in 33 innings, adjusted average 31.9. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 33 wickets in 28 matches bowled in (of 34 played) — 1.18 per match at 14.8, economy 2.98, strike rate 29.7.
