Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 11.4 over 49 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Out for 0 in 16% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 18 catches in 49 matches (0.37 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 39 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling not rated (weight redistributed). Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.36 for the level played (Rep Div 1 8 · 2nd grade 1 · 3rd grade 3 · Club 35 · 4th grade 2). 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: 14 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 49 matches — 0.31 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 49 innings at 11.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 6 wickets from 28.0 overs across 6 matches bowled in (of 49 played) — 0.12 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
