Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 2.4 over 10 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Going at 5.72 an over. Tighten the stock ball: hit a consistent length, cut out the 4-ball (short and wide / overpitched on the pads).
Only 0.08 catches per match over 12 matches. Fielding is the first thing selectors compare when batting/bowling are close — make catching the priority: 30 high balls + 30 flat catches per session, and ask to field in the ring/slips where chances come.
6 of 8 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
Out for 0 in 20% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 17 × 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
- ×0.48 for the level played (Rep Div 1 3 · Club 5). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 8 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 1 catches + 2 run outs (1 direct, 1 assisted) in 12 matches — 0.25 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 10 innings at 2.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 8 wickets in 11 matches bowled in (of 12 played) — 0.73 per match at 25.9, economy 5.72, strike rate 27.1.
