- ● Body of work — 37 imported matches (+0.7)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 2.5 over 19 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Going at 6.15 an over. Tighten the stock ball: hit a consistent length, cut out the 4-ball (short and wide / overpitched on the pads).
Only 0.05 catches per match over 37 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.
Out for 0 in 42% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 10 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 38 × 30%. 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 37). 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: 2 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 37 matches — 0.08 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 19 innings at 2.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 35 wickets in 35 matches bowled in (of 37 played) — 1.00 per match at 28.6, economy 6.15, strike rate 27.9.
