- ● Body of work — 34 imported matches (+0.7)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 9.8 over 22 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Going at 6.37 an over. Tighten the stock ball: hit a consistent length, cut out the 4-ball (short and wide / overpitched on the pads).
Only 0.12 catches per match over 34 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
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 12 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · 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
- ×0.30 for the level played (Club 34). 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
- Outfield: 4 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 34 matches — 0.12 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 22 innings at 9.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 9 wickets from 58.8 overs across 22 matches bowled in (of 34 played) — 0.41 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
