Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 11.6 over 48 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Out for 0 in 15% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.80 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 51 catches in 64 matches (0.80 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 13 run outs.
- ✓ Sharp glovework — 16 stumpings.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 79 × 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
- ×0.55 for the level played (Rep Div 1 22 · 3rd grade 3 · Club 1 · 4th grade 17). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 43 matches since 1 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Keeping: 46 catches + 16 stumpings + 13 run outs (2 direct, 11 assisted) in 64 matches — 1.17 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 48 innings at 11.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
