Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 10.5 over 18 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Only 0.00 catches per match over 17 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
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.31.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 0 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 53 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.45 for the level played (2nd grade 3 · 3rd grade 11 · Club 1 · 4th grade 2). 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: 0 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 17 matches — 0.00 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 18 innings at 10.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 24 wickets in 14 matches bowled in (of 17 played) — 1.71 per match at 21.5, economy 3.31, strike rate 38.9.
