- ● Body of work — 50 imported matches (+1.0)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 51.6 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
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.
Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (4 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 15.6.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.99.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 27 × 40% · Batting 59 × 30% · Bowling 59 × 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 23). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 23 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 12 catches + 4 run outs (2 direct, 2 assisted) in 50 matches — 0.32 per match.
- Batting
- 664 runs in 35 innings, adjusted average 24.9, strike rate 51.7. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 71 wickets in 47 matches bowled in (of 50 played) — 1.51 per match at 15.6, economy 2.99, strike rate 31.3.
