- ● Body of work — 37 imported matches (+0.7)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 7.3 over 36 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
19 of 29 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.
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.
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 — 17 catches in 37 matches (0.46 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 39 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 65 × 30%. 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 15). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 15 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 17 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 37 matches — 0.49 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 36 innings at 7.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 47 wickets in 35 matches bowled in (of 37 played) — 1.34 per match at 18.9, economy 4.00, strike rate 28.3.
