Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 5.2 over 34 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
2.2 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.
Going at 5.60 an over. Tighten the stock ball: hit a consistent length, cut out the 4-ball (short and wide / overpitched on the pads).
Only 0.14 catches per match over 51 matches. Fielding is the first thing selectors compare when batting/bowling are close — make catching the priority: 30 high balls + 30 flat catches per session, and ask to field in the ring/slips where chances come.
Out for 0 in 24% 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 20 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 39 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.43 for the level played (State competition 4 · Rep Div 1 4 · 2nd grade 7 · Club 14). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 29 matches since 28 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 7 catches + 2 run outs (0 direct, 2 assisted) in 51 matches — 0.18 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 34 innings at 5.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 23 wickets in 37 matches bowled in (of 51 played) — 0.62 per match at 23.6, economy 5.60, strike rate 25.3.
