Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 7.0 over 42 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Out for 0 in 24% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.17 dismissals per match across 54 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.19.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 16 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 53 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.42 for the level played (1st grade 4 · 2nd grade 4 · 3rd grade 30 · 4th grade 10 · 5th grade and below 6). 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: 9 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 54 matches — 0.17 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 42 innings at 7.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 94 wickets in 48 matches bowled in (of 54 played) — 1.96 per match at 18.7, economy 3.19, strike rate 35.0.
