Critical recommendations
28 of 40 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
Out for 0 in 12% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.50 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 43.5.
- ✓ Scores quickly (SR 110.9) without sacrificing consistency.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 5 hundred(s), best of 137.
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 14.0.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.13.
- ✓ Safe hands — 26 catches in 52 matches (0.50 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 54 × 40% · Batting 85 × 30% · Bowling 75 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.39 for the level played (Rep Div 1 6 · 3rd grade 1 · Club 27). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 34 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 26 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 52 matches — 0.54 per match.
- Batting
- 1,813 runs in 50 innings, adjusted average 43.5, strike rate 110.9. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 58 wickets in 39 matches bowled in (of 52 played) — 1.49 per match at 14.0, economy 3.13, strike rate 26.9.
