- ● Body of work — 16 imported matches (+0.3)
Critical recommendations
0.8 wides/no-balls per over is gifting runs and momentum. Groove the run-up and release with target bowling — a cone on a 4th-stump line, 30+ balls per session.
3 of 4 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
Strengths
- ✓ Effective lower-order runs — adjusted average 30.6 (frequently not out).
- ✓ Scores quickly (SR 92.1) without sacrificing consistency.
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 11.5.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 15 balls.
- ✓ Safe hands — 6 catches in 16 matches (0.38 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 40 × 40% · Batting 56 × 30% · Bowling 68 × 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 15). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 15 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 6 catches + 2 run outs (1 direct, 1 assisted) in 16 matches — 0.50 per match.
- Batting
- 280 runs in 16 innings, adjusted average 30.6, strike rate 92.1. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 19 wickets in 15 matches bowled in (of 16 played) — 1.27 per match at 11.5, economy 4.54, strike rate 15.2.
