- ● Premier or state pathway — 13 matches (+5.2)
- ● Body of work — 30 imported matches (+0.6)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 13.2 over 23 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
8 of 16 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 17% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 12.7.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.48.
- ✓ Safe hands — 11 catches in 30 matches (0.37 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 21 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 63 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.33 for the level played (2nd grade 1 · 3rd grade 12 · Club 17). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- No match in the last 2 years, so not ranked. The rating shown is from the career.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 11 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 30 matches — 0.37 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 23 innings at 13.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 58 wickets in 30 matches — 1.93 per match at 12.7, economy 2.48, strike rate 30.8.
