- ● Premier or state pathway — 30 matches (+10.0)
- ● Body of work — 49 imported matches (+1.0)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 7.7 over 41 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
19 of 37 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.
Out for 0 in 17% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.31 keeping dismissals (WK catches + stumpings) per match. Work standing-up takes and leg-side stumpings — the fastest way for a keeper to add value.
0.45 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 22 catches in 49 matches (0.45 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 24 × 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
- ×0.70 for the level played (Rep Div 1 30 · Club 6). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 36 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Keeping: 14 catches + 1 stumpings + 3 run outs (1 direct, 2 assisted) in 49 matches — 0.37 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 41 innings at 7.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 3 wickets from 8.0 overs across 5 matches bowled in (of 49 played) — 0.06 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
