- ● Regional representative — 15 matches (+2.2)
- ● Body of work — 15 imported matches (+0.3)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 10.6 over 11 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
7 of 10 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.
Only 0.13 catches per match over 15 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.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 11 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling not rated (weight redistributed). Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.22 for the level played (Club 3 · 5th grade and below 12). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 15 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 2 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 15 matches — 0.13 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 11 innings at 10.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 2 wickets from 15.0 overs across 3 matches bowled in (of 15 played) — 0.13 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
