- ● Body of work — 20 imported matches (+0.4)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 6.4 over 18 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
7 of 13 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.
Out for 0 in 28% 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 33 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 55 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.35 for the level played (2nd grade 3 · 3rd grade 4 · Club 13). 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: 5 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 20 matches — 0.25 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 18 innings at 6.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 22 wickets in 17 matches bowled in (of 20 played) — 1.29 per match at 23.1, economy 4.91, strike rate 28.3.
