Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 7.9 over 13 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
6 of 10 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 23% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Economy of 2.86 is excellent but a wicket every 46 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
0.54 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 7 catches in 13 matches (0.54 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 41 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 26 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.47 for the level played (Rep Div 1 3 · Club 7 · 4th grade 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: 7 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 13 matches — 0.54 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 13 innings at 7.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 11 wickets in 11 matches bowled in (of 13 played) — 1.00 per match at 22.1, economy 2.86, strike rate 46.4.
