Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 12.9 over 41 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Going at 5.56 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 20% 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 36 × 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
- ×0.30 for the level played (Club 24). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 24 matches since 1 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 14 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 51 matches — 0.29 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 41 innings at 12.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 25 wickets from 83.8 overs across 25 matches bowled in (of 51 played) — 1.00 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
