- ● Body of work — 10 imported matches (+0.2)
Critical recommendations
4 of 8 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 11% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.90 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 33.7.
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 13.4.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 18 balls.
- ✓ Safe hands — 9 catches in 10 matches (0.90 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 68 × 40% · Batting 56 × 30% · Bowling 62 × 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 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: 9 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 10 matches — 1.00 per match.
- Batting
- 273 runs in 9 innings, adjusted average 33.7. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 12 wickets in 8 matches bowled in (of 10 played) — 1.50 per match at 13.4, economy 4.35, strike rate 18.5.
