Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 7.8 over 12 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Only 0.08 catches per match over 40 matches. Fielding is the first thing selectors compare when batting/bowling are close — make catching the priority: 30 high balls + 30 flat catches per session, and ask to field in the ring/slips where chances come.
Economy of 3.79 is excellent but a wicket every 62 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 12 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 16 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.39 for the level played (Rep Div 1 7 · Club 31). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 38 matches since 29 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 3 catches + 2 run outs (1 direct, 1 assisted) in 40 matches — 0.12 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 12 innings at 7.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 17 wickets in 35 matches bowled in (of 40 played) — 0.49 per match at 38.9, economy 3.79, strike rate 61.7.
