- ● Regional representative — 3 matches (+0.4)
- ● Body of work — 23 imported matches (+0.5)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 6.8 over 14 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
0.22 dismissals per match across 23 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 20 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 37 × 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 22). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 22 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 5 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 23 matches — 0.22 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 14 innings at 6.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 19 wickets in 23 matches — 0.83 per match at 31.4, economy 4.17, strike rate 45.3.
