- ● Body of work — 58 imported matches (+1.2)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 9.1 over 51 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
22 of 40 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.
Out for 0 in 12% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.24 dismissals per match across 58 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 33 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 27 × 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 58). 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: 11 catches + 3 run outs (3 direct, 0 assisted) in 58 matches — 0.24 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 51 innings at 9.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 26 wickets in 51 matches bowled in (of 58 played) — 0.51 per match at 17.2, economy 2.63, strike rate 39.3.
