- ● Regional representative — 9 matches (+1.3)
- ● Body of work — 38 imported matches (+0.8)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 64.8 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Out for 0 in 18% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.45 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 17.1.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.39.
- ✓ Safe hands — 17 catches in 38 matches (0.45 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 43 × 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
- ×0.42 for the level played (Rep Div 1 9 · Club 28). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 37 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 17 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 38 matches — 0.47 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 27 innings at 18.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 36 wickets in 36 matches bowled in (of 38 played) — 1.00 per match at 17.1, economy 3.39, strike rate 30.2.
