- ● Body of work — 42 imported matches (+0.8)
- ● All-round value (+5)
Critical recommendations
29 of 38 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
0.45 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Scores quickly (SR 91.9) without sacrificing consistency.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 2 hundred(s), best of 116.
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 13.9.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 21 balls.
- ✓ Safe hands — 19 catches in 42 matches (0.45 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 46 × 40% · Batting 69 × 30% · Bowling 69 × 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 39). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 39 matches since 29 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 19 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 42 matches — 0.48 per match.
- Batting
- 905 runs in 42 innings, adjusted average 23.6, strike rate 91.9. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
