- ● Body of work — 30 imported matches (+0.6)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 7.9 over 27 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Only 0.07 catches per match over 30 matches. Fielding is the first thing selectors compare when batting/bowling are close — make catching the priority: 30 high balls + 30 flat catches per session, and ask to field in the ring/slips where chances come.
Out for 0 in 11% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 15 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 23 × 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 29). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 29 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 0 catches + 4 run outs (3 direct, 1 assisted) in 30 matches — 0.13 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 27 innings at 7.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 11 wickets in 25 matches bowled in (of 30 played) — 0.44 per match at 30.8, economy 5.48, strike rate 33.7.
