- ● Regional representative — 18 matches (+2.7)
- ● Body of work — 26 imported matches (+0.5)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 13.1 over 16 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
8 of 9 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.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 12.3.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.25.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 23 balls.
- ✓ Safe hands — 9 catches in 26 matches (0.35 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 31 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 69 × 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 21). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 21 matches since 29 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 9 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 26 matches — 0.38 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 16 innings at 13.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 37 wickets in 23 matches bowled in (of 26 played) — 1.61 per match at 12.3, economy 3.25, strike rate 22.8.
