- ● Regional representative — 29 matches (+4.0)
- ● Body of work — 53 imported matches (+1.1)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 5.7 over 29 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
8 of 13 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.
Out for 0 in 21% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 19 catches in 53 matches (0.36 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 29 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 55 × 30%. 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 (3rd grade 12 · Club 1 · 4th grade 10 · 5th grade and below 7). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 30 matches since 29 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 19 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 53 matches — 0.38 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 29 innings at 5.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 74 wickets in 48 matches bowled in (of 53 played) — 1.54 per match at 19.0, economy 3.89, strike rate 29.2.
