- ● Body of work — 23 imported matches (+0.5)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 9.6 over 8 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Out for 0 in 12% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 11.6.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.29.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 21 balls.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 25 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 70 × 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 18). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 18 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 5 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 23 matches — 0.26 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 8 innings at 9.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 32 wickets in 20 matches bowled in (of 23 played) — 1.60 per match at 11.6, economy 3.29, strike rate 21.1.
