Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 13.1 over 28 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
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.
0.54 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.44.
- ✓ Safe hands — 19 catches in 35 matches (0.54 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 49 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 57 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.58 for the level played (1st grade 2 · 2nd grade 26 · 3rd grade 6 · 4th grade 1). 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: 19 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 35 matches — 0.54 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 28 innings at 13.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 46 wickets in 30 matches bowled in (of 35 played) — 1.53 per match at 19.2, economy 3.44, strike rate 33.5.
