- ● Premier or state pathway — 13 matches (+5.2)
- ● Body of work — 38 imported matches (+0.8)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 5.1 over 27 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Only 0.11 catches per match over 38 matches. Fielding is the first thing selectors compare when batting/bowling are close — make catching the priority: 30 high balls + 30 flat catches per session, and ask to field in the ring/slips where chances come.
Out for 0 in 30% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 7 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 27 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.54 for the level played (Rep Div 1 13 · Club 13). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 26 matches since 30 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 4 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 38 matches — 0.13 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 27 innings at 5.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 10 wickets in 28 matches bowled in (of 38 played) — 0.36 per match at 45.4, economy 5.35, strike rate 50.9.
