Critical recommendations
Only 0.14 catches per match over 37 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 12% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Economy of 3.83 is excellent but a wicket every 40 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 12 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 44 × 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 (Rep Div 1 4 · 3rd grade 7 · Club 9 · 4th grade 10 · 5th grade and below 7). 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: 5 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 37 matches — 0.14 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 32 innings at 17.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 51 wickets in 32 matches bowled in (of 37 played) — 1.59 per match at 25.8, economy 3.83, strike rate 40.5.
