Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 11.3 over 10 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Only 0.00 catches per match over 14 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.
5 of 7 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
Out for 0 in 20% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Economy of 3.84 is excellent but a wicket every 46 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 0 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 40 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.49 for the level played (1st grade 1 · 2nd grade 3 · 3rd grade 10). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- No match in the last 2 years, so not ranked. The rating shown is from the career.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 0 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 14 matches — 0.00 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 10 innings at 11.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 14 wickets in 14 matches — 1.00 per match at 29.8, economy 3.84, strike rate 46.5.
