- ● Body of work — 63 imported matches (+1.3)
Critical recommendations
Out for 0 in 14% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Only 14% of 50+ scores become hundreds (6 fifties, 1 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
0.35 keeping dismissals (WK catches + stumpings) per match. Work standing-up takes and leg-side stumpings — the fastest way for a keeper to add value.
Strengths
- ✓ Scores quickly (SR 99.1) without sacrificing consistency.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 114.
- ✓ Sharp glovework — 12 stumpings.
- ✓ Reliable in the field — contributes a dismissal every second match.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 38 × 40% · Batting 62 × 30% · 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 31). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 31 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Keeping: 10 catches + 12 stumpings + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 63 matches — 0.37 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- 1,447 runs in 64 innings, adjusted average 22.6, strike rate 99.1. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 1 wicket from 10.3 overs across 4 matches bowled in (of 63 played) — 0.02 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
