- ● Body of work — 38 imported matches (+0.8)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 8.2 over 25 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
1.8 wides/no-balls per over is gifting runs and momentum. Groove the run-up and release with target bowling — a cone on a 4th-stump line, 30+ balls per session.
Going at 5.70 an over. Tighten the stock ball: hit a consistent length, cut out the 4-ball (short and wide / overpitched on the pads).
Out for 0 in 20% 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 79 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling not rated (weight redistributed). 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 3). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 3 matches since 1 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 8 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 38 matches — 0.26 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 25 innings at 8.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 32 wickets from 119.7 overs across 36 matches bowled in (of 38 played) — 0.89 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
