Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 7.4 over 41 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
18 of 34 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.
Only 0.02 catches per match over 45 matches. Fielding is the first thing selectors compare when batting/bowling are close — make catching the priority: 30 high balls + 30 flat catches per session, and ask to field in the ring/slips where chances come.
Out for 0 in 17% 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 7 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 60 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.34 for the level played (State competition 9 · Rep Div 1 5 · Club 31). 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: 1 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 45 matches — 0.04 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 41 innings at 7.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 33 wickets in 45 matches — 0.73 per match at 12.6, economy 3.56, strike rate 21.3.
