- ● Body of work — 39 imported matches (+0.8)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 13.6 over 23 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Out for 0 in 13% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.21 dismissals per match across 39 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 25 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 47 × 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 28). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 28 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 8 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 39 matches — 0.21 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 23 innings at 13.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 35 wickets in 37 matches bowled in (of 39 played) — 0.95 per match at 28.4, economy 4.64, strike rate 36.7.
