- ● Body of work — 10 imported matches (+0.2)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 6.9 over 7 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Going at 5.61 an over. Tighten the stock ball: hit a consistent length, cut out the 4-ball (short and wide / overpitched on the pads).
Only 0.00 catches per match over 10 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 0 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 24 × 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 9). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 9 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 0 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 10 matches — 0.00 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 7 innings at 6.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 5 wickets in 10 matches — 0.50 per match at 51.6, economy 5.61, strike rate 55.2.
