- ● Body of work — 39 imported matches (+0.8)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 14.7 over 29 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Going at 5.64 an over. Tighten the stock ball: hit a consistent length, cut out the 4-ball (short and wide / overpitched on the pads).
Only 0.13 catches per match over 39 matches. Fielding is the first thing selectors compare when batting/bowling are close — make catching the priority: 30 high balls + 30 flat catches per session, and ask to field in the ring/slips where chances come.
Out for 0 in 21% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 13 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 8 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.39 for the level played (Rep Div 1 7 · Club 32). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 39 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 5 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 39 matches — 0.15 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 29 innings at 14.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 7 wickets in 28 matches bowled in (of 39 played) — 0.25 per match at 58.0, economy 5.64, strike rate 61.7.
