- ● Body of work — 12 imported matches (+0.2)
Critical recommendations
4 of 7 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.
Out for 0 in 17% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
1.92 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 23 catches in 12 matches (1.92 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 93 × 40% · Batting 47 × 30% · Bowling not rated (weight redistributed). 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 (3rd grade 12). 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
- Keeping: 23 catches + 4 stumpings + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 12 matches — 2.25 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- 223 runs in 12 innings, adjusted average 26.3. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
