- ● Premier or state pathway — 5 matches (+2.0)
- ● Body of work — 41 imported matches (+0.8)
Critical recommendations
0.8 wides/no-balls per over is gifting runs and momentum. Groove the run-up and release with target bowling — a cone on a 4th-stump line, 30+ balls per session.
0.44 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 18 catches in 41 matches (0.44 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 10 run outs.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 55 × 40% · Batting 46 × 30% · Bowling 50 × 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 (Rep Div 1 5 · Club 35). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 40 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 14 catches + 10 run outs (5 direct, 5 assisted) in 41 matches — 0.59 per match.
- Batting
- 631 runs in 39 innings, adjusted average 20.3, strike rate 85.4. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 29 wickets in 39 matches bowled in (of 41 played) — 0.74 per match at 23.9, economy 4.84, strike rate 29.6.
