Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 14.9 over 40 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
1.0 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 18% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Reliable in the field — contributes a dismissal every second match.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 61 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 60 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.32 for the level played (Rep Div 1 1 · Club 43). 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: 15 catches + 7 run outs (7 direct, 0 assisted) in 44 matches — 0.50 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 40 innings at 14.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 25 wickets in 37 matches bowled in (of 44 played) — 0.68 per match at 16.6, economy 3.89, strike rate 25.7.
