Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 7.7 over 16 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Out for 0 in 25% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.23 dismissals per match across 47 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.54.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 22 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 55 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.54 for the level played (National competition 12 · Club 23). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 35 matches since 29 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 9 catches + 2 run outs (0 direct, 2 assisted) in 47 matches — 0.23 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 16 innings at 7.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 50 wickets in 46 matches bowled in (of 47 played) — 1.09 per match at 20.9, economy 3.54, strike rate 35.3.
