- ● Body of work — 69 imported matches (+1.4)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 50.0 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
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.
Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (4 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
0.54 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.58.
- ✓ Safe hands — 37 catches in 69 matches (0.54 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- ✓ Sharp glovework — 7 stumpings.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 46 × 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 19). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 19 matches since 30 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 21 catches + 5 run outs (3 direct, 2 assisted) in 69 matches — 0.38 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 71 innings at 18.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 17 wickets in 13 matches bowled in (of 69 played) — 0.25 per match at 19.7, economy 3.58, strike rate 33.0.
