- ● Premier or state pathway — 14 matches (+5.6)
- ● Body of work — 28 imported matches (+0.6)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 9.0 over 14 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Only 0.14 catches per match over 28 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 36% 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 13.8.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.84.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 17 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 62 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.54 for the level played (Rep Div 1 14 · Club 14). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 28 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 4 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 28 matches — 0.18 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 14 innings at 9.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 20 wickets in 26 matches bowled in (of 28 played) — 0.77 per match at 13.8, economy 2.84, strike rate 29.1.
