Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 9.8 over 20 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
11 of 15 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
Out for 0 in 20% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Economy of 3.32 is excellent but a wicket every 48 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
0.63 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.32.
- ✓ Safe hands — 12 catches in 19 matches (0.63 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 61 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 42 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.33 for the level played (3rd grade 7 · Club 11 · 4th grade 1). 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: 12 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 19 matches — 0.63 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 20 innings at 9.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 20 wickets in 15 matches bowled in (of 19 played) — 1.33 per match at 26.5, economy 3.32, strike rate 47.9.
