Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 14.7 over 12 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
7 of 10 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
Economy of 3.93 is excellent but a wicket every 42 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 10 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 48 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.36 for the level played (Rep Div 1 3 · Club 3 · 5th grade and below 3). 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: 1 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 9 matches — 0.11 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 12 innings at 14.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 8 wickets in 7 matches bowled in (of 9 played) — 1.14 per match at 27.5, economy 3.93, strike rate 42.0.
