Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 8.4 over 37 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
1.4 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.
Going at 5.75 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 11% 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 38 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 29 × 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 25). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 25 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 10 catches + 3 run outs (2 direct, 1 assisted) in 40 matches — 0.33 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 37 innings at 8.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 19 wickets in 38 matches bowled in (of 40 played) — 0.50 per match at 32.1, economy 5.75, strike rate 33.5.
