- ● Premier or state pathway — 9 matches (+3.6)

Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 7.7 over 40 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
0.42 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 12.2.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.37.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 22 balls.
- ✓ Safe hands — 19 catches in 45 matches (0.42 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 37 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 65 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.34 for the level played (Rep Div 1 9 · Club 36). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- No match in the last 2 years, so not ranked. The rating shown is from the career.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 18 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 45 matches — 0.42 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 40 innings at 7.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 35 wickets in 42 matches bowled in (of 45 played) — 0.83 per match at 12.2, economy 3.37, strike rate 21.7.
