- ● Regional representative — 2 matches (+0.3)
- ● Body of work — 20 imported matches (+0.4)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 13.3 over 19 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
13 of 16 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
Out for 0 in 10% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.40 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 12.2.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.61.
- ✓ Safe hands — 8 catches in 20 matches (0.40 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 35 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 71 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.33 for the level played (Rep Div 1 2 · Club 18). 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: 8 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 20 matches — 0.40 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 19 innings at 13.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 45 wickets in 19 matches bowled in (of 20 played) — 2.37 per match at 12.2, economy 2.61, strike rate 28.1.
