- ● Body of work — 40 imported matches (+0.8)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 13.3 over 27 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Economy of 3.38 is excellent but a wicket every 43 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.38.
- ✓ Safe hands — 15 catches in 40 matches (0.38 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 41 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 54 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.65 for the level played (1st grade 5 · Rep Div 1 27 · Club 4 · 4th grade 4). 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: 15 catches + 3 run outs (3 direct, 0 assisted) in 40 matches — 0.45 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 27 innings at 13.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 29 wickets in 34 matches bowled in (of 40 played) — 0.85 per match at 24.5, economy 3.38, strike rate 43.4.
