Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 12.3 over 37 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
20 of 29 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.
Out for 0 in 19% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Economy of 3.37 is excellent but a wicket every 41 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
0.24 dismissals per match across 55 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.37.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 23 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 48 × 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 24). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 24 matches since 1 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 12 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 55 matches — 0.24 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 37 innings at 12.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 59 wickets in 50 matches bowled in (of 55 played) — 1.18 per match at 22.8, economy 3.37, strike rate 40.7.
