- ● Body of work — 45 imported matches (+0.9)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 7.7 over 29 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 25 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 60 × 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 24). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 24 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 11 catches + 3 run outs (2 direct, 1 assisted) in 45 matches — 0.31 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 29 innings at 7.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 59 wickets in 45 matches — 1.31 per match at 20.8, economy 4.15, strike rate 30.0.
