  • ● Regional representative — 9 matches (+1.3)
  • ● Body of work — 19 imported matches (+0.4)

Critical recommendations

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

4 of 8 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 14.7.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.11.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 18 × 40% · Batting 59 × 30% · Bowling 47 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.36 for the level played (3rd grade 5 · 4th grade 4). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 9 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 5 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 19 matches — 0.26 per match.
Batting
245 runs in 14 innings, adjusted average 25.0, strike rate 66.4. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
22 wickets in 14 matches bowled in (of 19 played) — 1.57 per match at 14.7, economy 3.11, strike rate 28.4.
