Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 8.8 over 37 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
18 of 33 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 14% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.16 dismissals per match across 43 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 14.1.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.71.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 23 balls.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 7 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 59 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.65 for the level played (1st grade 26 · Rep Div 1 3 · 2nd grade 10 · Club 4). 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: 7 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 43 matches — 0.16 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 37 innings at 8.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 29 wickets in 30 matches bowled in (of 43 played) — 0.97 per match at 14.1, economy 3.71, strike rate 22.9.
