Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 4.4 over 18 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
8 of 13 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.
2.3 wides/no-balls per over is gifting runs and momentum. Groove the run-up and release with target bowling — a cone on a 4th-stump line, 30+ balls per session.
Going at 6.76 an over. Tighten the stock ball: hit a consistent length, cut out the 4-ball (short and wide / overpitched on the pads).
Out for 0 in 44% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.50 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 10 catches in 20 matches (0.50 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 29 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 16 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.32 for the level played (Rep Div 1 2 · Club 14). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 16 matches since 30 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 5 catches + 2 run outs (0 direct, 2 assisted) in 20 matches — 0.35 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 18 innings at 4.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 7 wickets in 18 matches bowled in (of 20 played) — 0.39 per match at 36.7, economy 6.76, strike rate 32.6.
