Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 12.6 over 10 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Economy of 2.15 is excellent but a wicket every 52 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
0.18 dismissals per match across 11 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.15.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 0 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 48 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.37 for the level played (3rd grade 7 · 4th grade 4). 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: 2 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 11 matches — 0.18 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 10 innings at 12.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 11 wickets in 11 matches — 1.00 per match at 18.7, economy 2.15, strike rate 52.2.
