- ● Body of work — 29 imported matches (+0.6)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 14.1 over 28 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Out for 0 in 11% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.55 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 13.1.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.05.
- ✓ Safe hands — 16 catches in 29 matches (0.55 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 47 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 70 × 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 12). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 12 matches since 30 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 11 catches + 5 run outs (3 direct, 2 assisted) in 29 matches — 0.55 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 28 innings at 14.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 20 wickets in 27 matches bowled in (of 29 played) — 0.74 per match at 13.1, economy 3.05, strike rate 25.8.
