Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 9.0 over 25 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Out for 0 in 12% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Economy of 4.00 is excellent but a wicket every 85 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 10 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 45 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.30 for the level played (Club 31). 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: 8 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 31 matches — 0.26 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 25 innings at 9.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 11 wickets in 28 matches bowled in (of 31 played) — 0.39 per match at 56.6, economy 4.00, strike rate 84.9.
