Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 8.1 over 14 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
0.8 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 29% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.53 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 8 catches in 15 matches (0.53 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 49 × 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
- ×0.56 for the level played (Rep Div 1 2 · 2nd grade 2 · Club 11). 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 15 matches — 0.60 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 14 innings at 8.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 7 wickets from 61.0 overs across 12 matches bowled in (of 15 played) — 0.58 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
