Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 13.7 over 29 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
0.9 wides/no-balls per over is gifting runs and momentum. Groove the run-up and release with target bowling — a cone on a 4th-stump line, 30+ balls per session.
Out for 0 in 21% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 30 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 34 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.30 for the level played (Club 27). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 27 matches since 2 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 9 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 30 matches — 0.33 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 29 innings at 13.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 13 wickets in 29 matches bowled in (of 30 played) — 0.45 per match at 26.5, economy 5.32, strike rate 29.9.
