Critical recommendations
Going at 5.51 an over. Tighten the stock ball: hit a consistent length, cut out the 4-ball (short and wide / overpitched on the pads).
Out for 0 in 22% 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 19 × 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
- ×0.42 for the level played (2nd grade 4 · 3rd grade 15 · Club 10 · 4th grade 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: 9 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 36 matches — 0.25 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 37 innings at 16.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 10 wickets from 71.0 overs across 12 matches bowled in (of 36 played) — 0.28 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
