- ● Body of work — 31 imported matches (+0.6)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 4.7 over 25 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
8 of 11 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.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 14.2.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 22 balls.
- ✓ Safe hands — 12 catches in 31 matches (0.39 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 41 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 70 × 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 30). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 30 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 12 catches + 2 run outs (1 direct, 1 assisted) in 31 matches — 0.45 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 25 innings at 4.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 62 wickets in 31 matches — 2.00 per match at 14.2, economy 3.81, strike rate 22.4.
