- ● Body of work — 25 imported matches (+0.5)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 61.8 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
14 of 24 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.
Out for 0 in 12% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
1.16 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 — 1 hundred(s), best of 105.
- ✓ Safe hands — 29 catches in 25 matches (1.16 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 71 × 40% · Batting 47 × 30% · 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 12). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 12 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Keeping: 20 catches + 1 stumpings + 3 run outs (0 direct, 3 assisted) in 25 matches — 0.96 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- 562 runs in 26 innings, adjusted average 23.3, strike rate 61.8. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 2 wickets from 42.2 overs across 10 matches bowled in (of 25 played) — 0.20 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
