- ● Body of work — 50 imported matches (+1.0)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 6.2 over 39 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
17 of 30 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 41% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.24 dismissals per match across 50 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 16.7.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.01.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 24 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 49 × 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 18). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 18 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 11 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 50 matches — 0.24 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 39 innings at 6.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 78 wickets in 47 matches bowled in (of 50 played) — 1.66 per match at 16.7, economy 3.01, strike rate 33.3.
