Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 6.8 over 13 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Out for 0 in 31% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 17.6.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.00.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 26 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 57 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.30 for the level played (Club 20). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 20 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 6 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 20 matches — 0.30 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 13 innings at 6.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 16 wickets in 18 matches bowled in (of 20 played) — 0.89 per match at 17.6, economy 3.00, strike rate 35.3.
