Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 11.1 over 57 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
28 of 49 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 0.07 catches per match over 56 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 21% 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 8 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling not rated (weight redistributed). Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.59 for the level played (1st grade 4 · Rep Div 1 38 · 3rd grade 3 · Club 1 · 4th grade 10). 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: 4 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 56 matches — 0.07 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 57 innings at 11.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 1 wicket from 17.0 overs across 4 matches bowled in (of 56 played) — 0.02 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
