Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 12.7 over 25 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
13 of 17 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 12% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.43 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 13 catches in 30 matches (0.43 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 38 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 34 × 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 30). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 30 matches since 31 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 13 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 30 matches — 0.43 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 25 innings at 12.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 13 wickets in 6 matches bowled in (of 30 played) — 0.43 per match at 16.2, economy 4.55, strike rate 21.4.
