- ● Premier or state pathway — 2 matches (+0.8)
- ● Body of work — 56 imported matches (+1.1)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 13.1 over 62 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Only 0.11 catches per match over 56 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 18% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 13 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · 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
- ×0.32 for the level played (Rep Div 1 2 · Club 54). 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 + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 56 matches — 0.11 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 62 innings at 13.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 11 wickets from 63.0 overs across 15 matches bowled in (of 56 played) — 0.20 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
