- ● Body of work — 28 imported matches (+0.6)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 9.1 over 24 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Only 0.04 catches per match over 28 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.
12 of 15 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
Out for 0 in 17% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 17.6.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.73.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 0 × 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
- ×0.30 for the level played (Club 28). 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: 1 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 28 matches — 0.07 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 24 innings at 9.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 23 wickets in 19 matches bowled in (of 28 played) — 1.21 per match at 17.6, economy 3.73, strike rate 28.3.
