- ● Regional representative — 21 matches (+3.1)
- ● Body of work — 43 imported matches (+0.9)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 49.5 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
26 of 33 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
0.23 dismissals per match across 43 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 15.9.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.53.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 19 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 66 × 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 25). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 25 matches since 28 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 8 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 43 matches — 0.23 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 37 innings at 18.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 42 wickets in 39 matches bowled in (of 43 played) — 1.08 per match at 15.9, economy 2.53, strike rate 37.7.
