- ● Body of work — 25 imported matches (+0.5)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 11.8 over 23 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Out for 0 in 17% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 35 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 57 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.31 for the level played (Rep Div 1 1 · Club 24). 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: 7 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 25 matches — 0.32 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 23 innings at 11.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 39 wickets in 24 matches bowled in (of 25 played) — 1.62 per match at 18.4, economy 4.33, strike rate 25.5.
