- ● Body of work — 41 imported matches (+0.8)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 14.2 over 42 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Out for 0 in 17% 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 41 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 13.1.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.61.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 15 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 73 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.28 for the level played (1st grade 5 · Club 24 · 4th grade 1 · 5th grade and below 11). 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: 7 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 41 matches — 0.20 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 42 innings at 14.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 39 wickets in 26 matches bowled in (of 41 played) — 1.50 per match at 13.1, economy 2.61, strike rate 30.1.
