Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 10.1 over 24 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Going at 5.87 an over. Tighten the stock ball: hit a consistent length, cut out the 4-ball (short and wide / overpitched on the pads).
Out for 0 in 25% 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 33 × 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 23). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 23 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 10 catches + 2 run outs (0 direct, 2 assisted) in 36 matches — 0.33 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 24 innings at 10.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 24 wickets in 29 matches bowled in (of 36 played) — 0.83 per match at 26.1, economy 5.87, strike rate 26.7.
