Critical recommendations
Out for 0 in 14% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (5 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
Strengths
- ✓ Scores quickly (SR 118.3) without sacrificing consistency.
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 15.6.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 22 balls.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 39 × 40% · Batting 64 × 30% · Bowling 67 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.57 for the level played (State competition 2 · Rep Div 1 10 · Club 10). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 22 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 9 catches + 6 run outs (6 direct, 0 assisted) in 44 matches — 0.34 per match.
- Batting
- 652 runs in 37 innings, adjusted average 22.4, strike rate 118.3. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 48 wickets in 42 matches bowled in (of 44 played) — 1.14 per match at 15.6, economy 4.20, strike rate 22.3.
