- ● Premier or state pathway — 5 matches (+2.0)
- ● Body of work — 27 imported matches (+0.5)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 10.4 over 23 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
7 of 12 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 13% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.59 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 16 catches in 27 matches (0.59 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 63 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 36 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.32 for the level played (Rep Div 1 1 · Club 17 · 4th grade 4). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 22 matches since 1 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 16 catches + 2 run outs (1 direct, 1 assisted) in 27 matches — 0.67 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 23 innings at 10.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 19 wickets in 26 matches bowled in (of 27 played) — 0.73 per match at 32.0, economy 4.83, strike rate 39.7.
