Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 8.1 over 37 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
20 of 26 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
0.23 dismissals per match across 61 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 30 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 52 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.21 for the level played (4th grade 4 · 5th grade and below 25). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 29 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 14 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 61 matches — 0.23 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 37 innings at 8.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 46 wickets in 52 matches bowled in (of 61 played) — 0.88 per match at 24.5, economy 4.02, strike rate 36.7.
