Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 14.4 over 34 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Out for 0 in 12% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
1.18 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 45 catches in 38 matches (1.18 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- ✓ Sharp glovework — 6 stumpings.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 82 × 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
- ×0.46 for the level played (Rep Div 1 18 · 3rd grade 1 · 4th grade 19). 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
- Keeping: 42 catches + 6 stumpings + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 38 matches — 1.26 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 34 innings at 14.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
