Critical recommendations
0.8 wides/no-balls per over is gifting runs and momentum. Groove the run-up and release with target bowling — a cone on a 4th-stump line, 30+ balls per session.
Out for 0 in 11% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.46 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 107.
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 15.5.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 22 balls.
- ✓ Safe hands — 22 catches in 48 matches (0.46 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 48 × 40% · Batting 63 × 30% · Bowling 59 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.41 for the level played (Rep Div 1 9 · Club 31). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 40 matches since 1 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 22 catches + 3 run outs (1 direct, 2 assisted) in 48 matches — 0.52 per match.
- Batting
- 1,018 runs in 47 innings, adjusted average 25.8, strike rate 82.0. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 38 wickets in 42 matches bowled in (of 48 played) — 0.90 per match at 15.5, economy 4.15, strike rate 22.4.
