- ● Regional representative — 3 matches (+0.4)
- ● Body of work — 20 imported matches (+0.4)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 9.6 over 13 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Out for 0 in 23% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.45 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.57.
- ✓ Safe hands — 9 catches in 20 matches (0.45 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 14 × 40% · Batting 51 × 30% · Bowling 54 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.34 for the level played (Rep Div 1 3 · 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: 9 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 20 matches — 0.50 per match.
- Batting
- 108 runs in 13 innings, adjusted average 9.6, strike rate 170.4. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 27 wickets in 18 matches bowled in (of 20 played) — 1.50 per match at 21.2, economy 3.57, strike rate 35.6.
