Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 9.8 over 28 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Out for 0 in 25% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 13.3.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.19.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 25 balls.
- ✓ Safe hands — 13 catches in 33 matches (0.39 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 32 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 64 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.71 for the level played (State competition 4 · Rep Div 1 19 · Club 10). 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: 13 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 33 matches — 0.42 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 28 innings at 9.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 27 wickets in 27 matches bowled in (of 33 played) — 1.00 per match at 13.3, economy 3.19, strike rate 25.0.
