Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 5.9 over 17 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
8 of 15 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 12% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 9.4.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.07.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 18 balls.
- ✓ Safe hands — 8 catches in 21 matches (0.38 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 33 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 73 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.36 for the level played (Rep Div 1 2 · Club 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
- Outfield: 8 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 21 matches — 0.43 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 17 innings at 5.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 32 wickets in 20 matches bowled in (of 21 played) — 1.60 per match at 9.4, economy 3.07, strike rate 18.4.
