- ● Division 1 representative (+4)
- ● Body of work — 50 imported matches (+1.0)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 41.7 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Only 0.12 catches per match over 50 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.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 10.3.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.83.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 22 balls.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 27 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 75 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.34 for the level played (Rep Div 1 13 · Club 37). 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: 6 catches + 5 run outs (5 direct, 0 assisted) in 50 matches — 0.22 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 45 innings at 15.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 44 wickets in 45 matches bowled in (of 50 played) — 0.98 per match at 10.3, economy 2.83, strike rate 21.9.
