- ● Body of work — 35 imported matches (+0.7)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 4.4 over 26 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Only 0.09 catches per match over 35 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 23% 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 0 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 43 × 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 35). 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: 3 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 35 matches — 0.09 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 26 innings at 4.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 32 wickets in 29 matches bowled in (of 35 played) — 1.10 per match at 29.9, economy 5.15, strike rate 34.9.
