- ● Body of work — 40 imported matches (+0.8)
Critical recommendations
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.
Economy of 3.69 is excellent but a wicket every 52 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
Strengths
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 33.1.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 2 hundred(s), best of 129.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.69.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 19 × 40% · Batting 71 × 30% · Bowling 33 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.83 for the level played (1st grade 22 · Club 1). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 23 matches since 1 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 11 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 40 matches — 0.28 per match.
- Batting
- 1,303 runs in 43 innings, adjusted average 33.1, strike rate 66.7. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 29 wickets in 33 matches bowled in (of 40 played) — 0.88 per match at 31.9, economy 3.69, strike rate 51.9.
