- ● Body of work — 15 imported matches (+0.3)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 7.4 over 14 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Going at 6.35 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 29% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.20 dismissals per match across 15 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 27 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · 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 3). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 3 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 3 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 15 matches — 0.20 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 14 innings at 7.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 6 wickets from 17.0 overs across 4 matches bowled in (of 15 played) — 0.40 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
