Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 5.7 over 24 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
9 of 16 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 25% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Economy of 3.42 is excellent but a wicket every 42 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 40 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 33 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.56 for the level played (1st grade 1 · Rep Div 1 10 · Club 18). 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: 7 catches + 5 run outs (5 direct, 0 assisted) in 29 matches — 0.41 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 24 innings at 5.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 11 wickets in 22 matches bowled in (of 29 played) — 0.50 per match at 24.1, economy 3.42, strike rate 42.3.
