- ● Body of work — 19 imported matches (+0.4)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 5.8 over 14 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Only 0.05 catches per match over 19 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.
Out for 0 in 29% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 13.9.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.32.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 6 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 64 × 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 13). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 13 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 1 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 19 matches — 0.05 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 14 innings at 5.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 28 wickets in 17 matches bowled in (of 19 played) — 1.65 per match at 13.9, economy 3.32, strike rate 25.2.
