- ● Regional representative — 24 matches (+3.6)
- ● Body of work — 42 imported matches (+0.8)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 13.6 over 33 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Only 0.12 catches per match over 42 matches. Fielding is the first thing selectors compare when batting/bowling are close — make catching the priority: 30 high balls + 30 flat catches per session, and ask to field in the ring/slips where chances come.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 17.9.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.66.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 11 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 66 × 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 24). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 24 matches since 30 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 42 matches — 0.12 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 33 innings at 13.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 55 wickets in 40 matches bowled in (of 42 played) — 1.38 per match at 17.9, economy 3.66, strike rate 29.3.
