- ● Body of work — 21 imported matches (+0.4)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 52.2 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
10 of 16 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.
0.48 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.56.
- ✓ Safe hands — 10 catches in 21 matches (0.48 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 10 × 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
- ×0.30 for the level played (Club 8). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 8 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 10 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 21 matches — 0.48 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 18 innings at 17.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 30 wickets in 21 matches — 1.43 per match at 18.5, economy 3.56, strike rate 31.2.
