- ● Body of work — 48 imported matches (+1.0)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 43.9 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
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.
Economy of 3.33 is excellent but a wicket every 44 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
0.48 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.33.
- ✓ Safe hands — 23 catches in 48 matches (0.48 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 47 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 43 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.58 for the level played (1st grade 1 · 2nd grade 40 · 3rd grade 6 · Club 1). 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: 23 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 48 matches — 0.52 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 51 innings at 18.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 44 wickets in 42 matches bowled in (of 48 played) — 1.05 per match at 24.5, economy 3.33, strike rate 44.1.
