- ● Body of work — 33 imported matches (+0.7)
Critical recommendations
9 of 17 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.
1.0 wides/no-balls per over is gifting runs and momentum. Groove the run-up and release with target bowling — a cone on a 4th-stump line, 30+ balls per session.
Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (4 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
0.48 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 16 catches in 33 matches (0.48 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 68 × 40% · Batting 64 × 30% · Bowling 40 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.36 for the level played (Rep Div 1 3 · Club 21). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 24 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 14 catches + 7 run outs (4 direct, 3 assisted) in 33 matches — 0.64 per match.
- Batting
- 527 runs in 27 innings, adjusted average 26.8, strike rate 79.5. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 15 wickets in 29 matches bowled in (of 33 played) — 0.52 per match at 35.9, economy 4.64, strike rate 46.3.
