- ● Body of work — 57 imported matches (+1.1)
Critical recommendations
0.65 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 2 hundred(s), best of 109.
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 15.2.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.11.
- ✓ Safe hands — 37 catches in 57 matches (0.65 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 56 × 40% · Batting 76 × 30% · Bowling 57 × 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 24). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 24 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 21 catches + 6 run outs (3 direct, 3 assisted) in 57 matches — 0.47 per match.
- Batting
- 1,310 runs in 53 innings, adjusted average 28.0, strike rate 86.6. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
