- ● Body of work — 41 imported matches (+0.8)
Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 7.8 over 36 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
16 of 27 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.
Out for 0 in 17% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.24 keeping dismissals (WK catches + stumpings) per match. Work standing-up takes and leg-side stumpings — the fastest way for a keeper to add value.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 19 × 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
- ×0.59 for the level played (2nd grade 26 · Club 1). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 27 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Keeping: 9 catches + 1 stumpings + 3 run outs (2 direct, 1 assisted) in 41 matches — 0.32 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 36 innings at 7.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 0 wickets from 7.0 overs across 5 matches bowled in (of 41 played) — 0.00 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
