- ● Body of work — 20 imported matches (+0.4)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 52.2 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
0.60 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 12.9.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.37.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 23 balls.
- ✓ Safe hands — 12 catches in 20 matches (0.60 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 54 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 66 × 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 20). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 20 matches since 30 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 12 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 20 matches — 0.65 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 20 innings at 20.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 14 wickets in 8 matches bowled in (of 20 played) — 1.75 per match at 12.9, economy 3.37, strike rate 23.0.
