- ● Premier or state pathway — 5 matches (+2.0)
- ● Body of work — 17 imported matches (+0.3)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 13.2 over 16 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
7 of 12 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.
0.18 dismissals per match across 17 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 12.4.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.23.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 23 balls.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 17 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 57 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.66 for the level played (State competition 5 · Rep Div 1 2 · Club 10). 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: 3 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 17 matches — 0.18 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 16 innings at 13.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 17 wickets in 16 matches bowled in (of 17 played) — 1.06 per match at 12.4, economy 3.23, strike rate 23.1.
