- ● Body of work — 64 imported matches (+1.3)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 12.2 over 49 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
20 of 32 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.
0.53 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 15.2.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.48.
- ✓ Safe hands — 34 catches in 64 matches (0.53 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- 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 10). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 10 matches since 1 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 34 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 64 matches — 0.55 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 49 innings at 12.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 100 wickets in 56 matches bowled in (of 64 played) — 1.79 per match at 15.2, economy 3.48, strike rate 26.3.
