- ● Body of work — 33 imported matches (+0.7)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 4.4 over 26 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
12 of 21 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.
Out for 0 in 38% 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 11.2.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.38.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 20 balls.
- ✓ Safe hands — 12 catches in 33 matches (0.36 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 52 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 76 × 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 33). 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: 12 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 33 matches — 0.42 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 26 innings at 4.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 21 wickets in 27 matches bowled in (of 33 played) — 0.78 per match at 11.2, economy 3.38, strike rate 19.9.
