Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 11.9 over 38 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
13 of 26 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.
Only 0.12 catches per match over 59 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.
Out for 0 in 10% 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 20 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 52 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.68 for the level played (State competition 14 · 1st grade 18 · Rep Div 1 13 · 2nd grade 7 · Club 7). 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: 4 catches + 5 run outs (5 direct, 0 assisted) in 59 matches — 0.15 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 38 innings at 11.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 38 wickets in 53 matches bowled in (of 59 played) — 0.72 per match at 16.7, economy 3.25, strike rate 30.8.
