- ● Body of work — 54 imported matches (+1.1)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 36.3 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Out for 0 in 18% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Economy of 3.12 is excellent but a wicket every 54 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 30 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 32 × 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 54). 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: 17 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 54 matches — 0.35 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 45 innings at 18.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 26 wickets in 44 matches bowled in (of 54 played) — 0.59 per match at 28.4, economy 3.12, strike rate 54.5.
