Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 5.6 over 35 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Only 0.14 catches per match over 66 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 26% 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 11 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 45 × 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 (2nd grade 8 · 3rd grade 17 · 4th grade 8). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 33 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 9 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 66 matches — 0.14 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 35 innings at 5.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 77 wickets in 60 matches bowled in (of 66 played) — 1.28 per match at 25.7, economy 4.22, strike rate 36.5.
