Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 15.0 over 10 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
5 of 9 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.
Economy of 3.53 is excellent but a wicket every 43 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
0.19 dismissals per match across 26 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 22 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 42 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.76 for the level played (Rep Div 1 23 · Club 3). 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 26 matches — 0.19 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 10 innings at 15.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 14 wickets in 19 matches bowled in (of 26 played) — 0.74 per match at 25.1, economy 3.53, strike rate 42.6.
