  • ● Body of work — 22 imported matches (+0.4)

Critical recommendations

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

9 of 18 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.

Strengths

  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 17.0.
  • ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 24 balls.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 8 catches in 22 matches (0.36 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 34 × 40% · Batting 42 × 30% · Bowling 60 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.41 for the level played (Rep Div 1 5 · Club 16). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 21 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 8 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 22 matches — 0.41 per match.
Batting
443 runs in 20 innings, adjusted average 24.4, strike rate 67.7. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
20 wickets in 11 matches bowled in (of 22 played) — 1.82 per match at 17.0, economy 4.28, strike rate 23.9.
