Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 7.2 over 17 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
9 of 15 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.
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.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 55 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling not rated (weight redistributed). 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 (1st grade 1 · Rep Div 1 3 · Club 10 · 4th grade 5). 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: 4 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 19 matches — 0.26 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 17 innings at 7.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 3 wickets from 24.0 overs across 6 matches bowled in (of 19 played) — 0.16 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
