- ● Regional representative — 5 matches (+0.8)
- ● Body of work — 23 imported matches (+0.5)
Critical recommendations
Economy of 3.41 is excellent but a wicket every 46 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
0.22 dismissals per match across 23 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.41.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 10 × 40% · Batting 38 × 30% · Bowling 40 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.46 for the level played (Rep Div 1 7 · 2nd grade 1 · 3rd grade 5 · Club 10). 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: 5 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 23 matches — 0.22 per match.
- Batting
- 308 runs in 21 innings, adjusted average 15.4. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 21 wickets in 20 matches bowled in (of 23 played) — 1.05 per match at 26.0, economy 3.41, strike rate 45.8.
