Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 9.0 over 23 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Going at 6.48 an over. Tighten the stock ball: hit a consistent length, cut out the 4-ball (short and wide / overpitched on the pads).
Out for 0 in 13% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 20 balls.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 44 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 54 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.32 for the level played (2nd grade 1 · 3rd grade 2 · Club 31). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 34 matches since 29 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 16 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 49 matches — 0.35 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 23 innings at 9.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 46 wickets in 48 matches bowled in (of 49 played) — 0.96 per match at 21.4, economy 6.48, strike rate 19.8.
