- ● Body of work — 34 imported matches (+0.7)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 6.5 over 31 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
1.3 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 6.33 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 13% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 12 catches in 34 matches (0.35 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 39 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 30 × 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 34). 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: 10 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 34 matches — 0.35 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 31 innings at 6.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 14 wickets in 31 matches bowled in (of 34 played) — 0.45 per match at 36.7, economy 6.33, strike rate 34.8.
