- ● Premier or state pathway — 16 matches (+6.4)
- ● Body of work — 31 imported matches (+0.6)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 7.3 over 21 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Only 0.13 catches per match over 31 matches. Fielding is the first thing selectors compare when batting/bowling are close — make catching the priority: 30 high balls + 30 flat catches per session, and ask to field in the ring/slips where chances come.
Out for 0 in 24% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 19 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 37 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.49 for the level played (State competition 2 · Rep Div 1 4 · 2nd grade 13 · 3rd grade 3 · Club 9). 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: 4 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 31 matches — 0.19 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 21 innings at 7.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 18 wickets in 28 matches bowled in (of 31 played) — 0.64 per match at 28.9, economy 4.86, strike rate 35.7.
