Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 14.3 over 26 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
18 of 25 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
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.
0.24 dismissals per match across 29 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 17 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 53 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.54 for the level played (Rep Div 1 10 · Club 10). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 20 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 6 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 29 matches — 0.24 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 26 innings at 14.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 13 wickets in 14 matches bowled in (of 29 played) — 0.93 per match at 21.1, economy 4.09, strike rate 30.9.
