- ● Body of work — 26 imported matches (+0.5)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 48.4 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
11 of 22 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.
Economy of 3.88 is excellent but a wicket every 62 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
0.46 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 12 catches in 26 matches (0.46 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 53 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 35 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.38 for the level played (2nd grade 4 · 3rd grade 13 · 4th grade 6 · 5th grade and below 3). 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: 12 catches + 4 run outs (1 direct, 3 assisted) in 26 matches — 0.62 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 24 innings at 17.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 11 wickets in 17 matches bowled in (of 26 played) — 0.65 per match at 40.4, economy 3.88, strike rate 62.5.
