Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 14.1 over 20 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
10 of 19 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.
0.8 wides/no-balls per over is gifting runs and momentum. Groove the run-up and release with target bowling — a cone on a 4th-stump line, 30+ balls per session.
Out for 0 in 15% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.68 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 13 catches in 19 matches (0.68 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 73 × 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
- ×0.30 for the level played (Club 18). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 18 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 12 catches + 3 run outs (2 direct, 1 assisted) in 19 matches — 0.79 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 20 innings at 14.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 16 wickets in 17 matches bowled in (of 19 played) — 0.94 per match at 22.0, economy 4.09, strike rate 32.3.
