- ● Body of work — 34 imported matches (+0.7)
- ● Genuine all-rounder — strong in both disciplines (+8)
Critical recommendations
17 of 25 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 16% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.71 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 53.7.
- ✓ Scores quickly (SR 111.1) without sacrificing consistency.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 5 hundred(s), best of 238.
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 12.1.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.86.
- ✓ Safe hands — 24 catches in 34 matches (0.71 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 74 × 40% · Batting 100 × 30% · Bowling 74 × 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 23). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 23 matches since 30 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 24 catches + 5 run outs (4 direct, 1 assisted) in 34 matches — 0.85 per match.
- Batting
- 1,409 runs in 32 innings, adjusted average 53.7, strike rate 111.1. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
