- ● Regional representative — 13 matches (+1.9)
- ● Body of work — 28 imported matches (+0.6)
Critical recommendations
Only 0.07 catches per match over 28 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 16% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Scores quickly (SR 161.5) without sacrificing consistency.
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 13.8.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.09.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 0 × 40% · Batting 50 × 30% · Bowling 67 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.44 for the level played (Rep Div 1 13 · Club 15). 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: 2 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 28 matches — 0.07 per match.
- Batting
- 418 runs in 25 innings, adjusted average 21.4, strike rate 161.5. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 41 wickets in 28 matches — 1.46 per match at 13.8, economy 3.09, strike rate 26.8.
