- ● Body of work — 27 imported matches (+0.5)
Critical recommendations
Going at 5.96 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 12% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.63 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 17 catches in 27 matches (0.63 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 18 × 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 27). 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: 9 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 27 matches — 0.37 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 26 innings at 19.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 8 wickets from 26.7 overs across 9 matches bowled in (of 27 played) — 0.30 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
