Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 13.1 over 38 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Out for 0 in 18% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.85 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 53 matches (0.85 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 10 run outs.
- ✓ Sharp glovework — 13 stumpings.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 71 × 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
- ×0.62 for the level played (Rep Div 1 25 · 3rd grade 1 · Club 12). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 38 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Keeping: 43 catches + 13 stumpings + 10 run outs (1 direct, 9 assisted) in 53 matches — 1.25 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 38 innings at 13.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
