Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 6.9 over 24 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
10 of 14 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.
Economy of 2.94 is excellent but a wicket every 60 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.94.
- ✓ Safe hands — 11 catches in 29 matches (0.38 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 23 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 30 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.42 for the level played (2nd grade 6 · 3rd grade 19 · 4th grade 4). 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: 11 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 29 matches — 0.45 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 24 innings at 6.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 40 wickets in 28 matches bowled in (of 29 played) — 1.43 per match at 29.7, economy 2.94, strike rate 60.4.
