- ● Body of work — 47 imported matches (+0.9)
Critical recommendations
Out for 0 in 14% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (9 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
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 17.3.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.51.
- ✓ Safe hands — 19 catches in 47 matches (0.40 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 27 × 40% · Batting 47 × 30% · Bowling 56 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.34 for the level played (Rep Div 1 3 · 3rd grade 2 · Club 41 · 4th grade 1). 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: 19 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 47 matches — 0.40 per match.
- Batting
- 1,029 runs in 43 innings, adjusted average 26.7. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 41 wickets in 33 matches bowled in (of 47 played) — 1.24 per match at 17.3, economy 3.51, strike rate 29.6.
