- ● Body of work — 27 imported matches (+0.5)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 3.1 over 21 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Out for 0 in 38% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.15 dismissals per match across 27 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 15.4.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.03.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 13 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 61 × 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 1 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 4 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 27 matches — 0.15 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 21 innings at 3.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 50 wickets in 27 matches — 1.85 per match at 15.4, economy 3.03, strike rate 30.5.
