- ● Body of work — 27 imported matches (+0.5)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 4.4 over 27 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
13 of 26 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.
Going at 6.01 an over. Tighten the stock ball: hit a consistent length, cut out the 4-ball (short and wide / overpitched on the pads).
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
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 24 balls.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 33 × 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 27). 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: 6 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 27 matches — 0.26 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 27 innings at 4.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 20 wickets in 25 matches bowled in (of 27 played) — 0.80 per match at 23.9, economy 6.01, strike rate 23.9.
