Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 7.8 over 10 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Out for 0 in 30% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.20 dismissals per match across 15 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 16.0.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.35.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 14 × 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
- ×0.70 for the level played (1st grade 4 · Rep Div 1 9 · Club 2). 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: 3 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 15 matches — 0.20 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 10 innings at 7.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 23 wickets in 15 matches — 1.53 per match at 16.0, economy 3.35, strike rate 28.7.
