Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 4.2 over 25 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
1.0 wides/no-balls per over is gifting runs and momentum. Groove the run-up and release with target bowling — a cone on a 4th-stump line, 30+ balls per session.
Going at 5.57 an over. Tighten the stock ball: hit a consistent length, cut out the 4-ball (short and wide / overpitched on the pads).
Out for 0 in 16% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.14 keeping dismissals (WK catches + stumpings) per match. Work standing-up takes and leg-side stumpings — the fastest way for a keeper to add value.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 13 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 46 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.31 for the level played (Rep Div 1 2 · Club 34). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 36 matches since 29 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Keeping: 7 catches + 0 stumpings + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 51 matches — 0.16 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 25 innings at 4.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 27 wickets in 44 matches bowled in (of 51 played) — 0.61 per match at 21.3, economy 5.57, strike rate 23.0.
