Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 7.5 over 24 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
13 of 22 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 12% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.41 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 13 catches in 32 matches (0.41 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 40 × 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
- ×0.20 for the level played (5th grade and below 2). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 2 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 13 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 32 matches — 0.41 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 24 innings at 7.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 13 wickets from 70.2 overs across 17 matches bowled in (of 32 played) — 0.76 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
