Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 11.5 over 39 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Out for 0 in 10% 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 17 × 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
- ×0.41 for the level played (Rep Div 1 7 · 3rd grade 1 · Club 38). 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: 8 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 46 matches — 0.22 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 39 innings at 11.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 23 wickets from 84.8 overs across 30 matches bowled in (of 46 played) — 0.77 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
