- ● Body of work — 40 imported matches (+0.8)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 6.7 over 23 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Going at 5.58 an over. Tighten the stock ball: hit a consistent length, cut out the 4-ball (short and wide / overpitched on the pads).
Only 0.13 catches per match over 40 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 30% 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 25 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 31 × 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 29). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 29 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 5 catches + 4 run outs (2 direct, 2 assisted) in 40 matches — 0.23 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 23 innings at 6.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 25 wickets in 38 matches bowled in (of 40 played) — 0.66 per match at 26.6, economy 5.58, strike rate 28.6.
