- ● Body of work — 45 imported matches (+0.9)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 6.7 over 32 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
11 of 22 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 16% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.22 dismissals per match across 45 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 9 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 45 × 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 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 5 catches + 3 run outs (1 direct, 2 assisted) in 45 matches — 0.18 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 32 innings at 6.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 47 wickets in 43 matches bowled in (of 45 played) — 1.09 per match at 27.5, economy 4.33, strike rate 38.1.
