- ● Body of work — 41 imported matches (+0.8)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 14.1 over 23 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Only 0.12 catches per match over 41 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 13% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 16.3.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 21 balls.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 28 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 62 × 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 35). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 35 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 5 catches + 5 run outs (4 direct, 1 assisted) in 41 matches — 0.24 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 23 innings at 14.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 27 wickets in 33 matches bowled in (of 41 played) — 0.82 per match at 16.3, economy 4.65, strike rate 21.0.
