Critical recommendations
10 of 20 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.
0.49 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 16.8.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 22 balls.
- ✓ Safe hands — 20 catches in 41 matches (0.49 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 72 × 40% · Batting 48 × 30% · Bowling 67 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.37 for the level played (Rep Div 1 2 · Rep Div 2 10 · Club 15). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 27 matches since 29 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 20 catches + 5 run outs (4 direct, 1 assisted) in 41 matches — 0.61 per match.
- Batting
- 644 runs in 38 innings, adjusted average 25.0, strike rate 89.7. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 30 wickets in 35 matches bowled in (of 41 played) — 0.86 per match at 16.8, economy 4.57, strike rate 22.0.
