- ● Body of work — 35 imported matches (+0.7)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 64.0 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
1.1 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.
0.29 keeping dismissals (WK catches + stumpings) per match. Work standing-up takes and leg-side stumpings — the fastest way for a keeper to add value.
0.46 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 35 matches (0.46 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 15 × 40% · Batting 51 × 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
- ×0.30 for the level played (Club 20). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 20 matches since 28 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 9 catches + 2 run outs (0 direct, 2 assisted) in 35 matches — 0.31 per match.
- Batting
- 403 runs in 25 innings, adjusted average 19.3, strike rate 64.0. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 13 wickets from 55.8 overs across 18 matches bowled in (of 35 played) — 0.72 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
