- ● Body of work — 48 imported matches (+1.0)
Critical recommendations
0.8 wides/no-balls per over is gifting runs and momentum. Groove the run-up and release with target bowling — a cone on a 4th-stump line, 30+ balls per session.
Out for 0 in 16% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Scores quickly (SR 106.7) without sacrificing consistency.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 122.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 28 × 40% · Batting 71 × 30% · Bowling 49 × 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 39). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 39 matches since 30 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 14 catches + 2 run outs (1 direct, 1 assisted) in 48 matches — 0.33 per match.
- Batting
- 909 runs in 45 innings, adjusted average 22.0, strike rate 106.7. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 26 wickets in 37 matches bowled in (of 48 played) — 0.70 per match at 28.0, economy 4.51, strike rate 37.3.
