Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 14.4 over 89 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

high Bowling
Conceding too many extras

0.9 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.

high Fielding
Catching return too low for selection

Only 0.09 catches per match over 142 matches. Fielding is the first thing selectors compare when batting/bowling are close — make catching the priority: 30 high balls + 30 flat catches per session, and ask to field in the ring/slips where chances come.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 15% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

Strengths

  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 17.6.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 12 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 57 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.78 for the level played (National competition 33 · 1st grade 83 · Rep Div 1 3 · Club 23). 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: 13 catches + 6 run outs (6 direct, 0 assisted) in 142 matches — 0.13 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 89 innings at 14.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
115 wickets in 133 matches bowled in (of 142 played) — 0.86 per match at 17.6, economy 4.04, strike rate 26.1.
