- ● Body of work — 12 imported matches (+0.2)
Critical recommendations
Going at 5.97 an over. Tighten the stock ball: hit a consistent length, cut out the 4-ball (short and wide / overpitched on the pads).
11 of 11 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
0.75 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 37.5.
- ✓ Safe hands — 9 catches in 12 matches (0.75 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 35 × 40% · Batting 53 × 30% · Bowling not rated (weight redistributed). Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.54 for the level played (Rep Div 1 10 · Club 2). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- No match in the last 2 years, so not ranked. The rating shown is from the career.
- Fielding
- Keeping: 5 catches + 3 stumpings + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 12 matches — 0.67 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- 412 runs in 11 innings, adjusted average 37.5, strike rate 82.5. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 7 wickets from 29.2 overs across 5 matches bowled in (of 12 played) — 1.40 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
