Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 11.8 over 47 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Out for 0 in 23% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.64.
- ✓ Safe hands — 21 catches in 59 matches (0.36 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 59 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 54 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.45 for the level played (2nd grade 4 · 3rd grade 18 · 4th grade 1). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 23 matches since 28 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 21 catches + 3 run outs (3 direct, 0 assisted) in 59 matches — 0.41 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 47 innings at 11.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 86 wickets in 54 matches bowled in (of 59 played) — 1.59 per match at 20.2, economy 3.64, strike rate 33.2.
