- ● Premier or state pathway — 10 matches (+4.0)
- ● Body of work — 33 imported matches (+0.7)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 14.1 over 26 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
1.0 wides/no-balls per over is gifting runs and momentum. Groove the run-up and release with target bowling — a cone on a 4th-stump line, 30+ balls per session.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 12 catches in 33 matches (0.36 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 19 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 56 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.45 for the level played (Rep Div 1 10 · Club 22). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 32 matches since 29 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 6 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 33 matches — 0.21 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 26 innings at 14.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 24 wickets in 32 matches bowled in (of 33 played) — 0.75 per match at 17.6, economy 4.92, strike rate 21.5.
