Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 10.2 over 20 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
10 of 12 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
Out for 0 in 20% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Economy of 2.52 is excellent but a wicket every 41 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
0.23 dismissals per match across 64 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 17.4.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.52.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 33 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 44 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.29 for the level played (4th grade 11). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 11 matches since 31 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 11 catches + 4 run outs (4 direct, 0 assisted) in 64 matches — 0.23 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 20 innings at 10.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 104 wickets in 59 matches bowled in (of 64 played) — 1.76 per match at 17.4, economy 2.52, strike rate 41.3.
