- ● Body of work — 41 imported matches (+0.8)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 10.7 over 43 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
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.
0.24 dismissals per match across 41 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 18 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling not rated (weight redistributed). 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 41). 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: 9 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 41 matches — 0.22 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 43 innings at 10.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 5 wickets from 25.0 overs across 9 matches bowled in (of 41 played) — 0.12 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
