Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 11.8 over 47 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Only 0.13 catches per match over 54 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 19% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Economy of 3.90 is excellent but a wicket every 46 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 5 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 44 × 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 17). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 17 matches since 1 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 7 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 54 matches — 0.15 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 47 innings at 11.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 26 wickets in 49 matches bowled in (of 54 played) — 0.53 per match at 29.6, economy 3.90, strike rate 45.6.
