- ● Premier or state pathway — 38 matches (+10.0)
- ● Body of work — 54 imported matches (+1.1)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 28.8 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
0.24 dismissals per match across 54 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 16.6.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.12.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 22 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 53 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.72 for the level played (Rep Div 1 38 · Club 16). 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: 10 catches + 3 run outs (3 direct, 0 assisted) in 54 matches — 0.24 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 33 innings at 15.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 51 wickets in 48 matches bowled in (of 54 played) — 1.06 per match at 16.6, economy 3.12, strike rate 31.8.
