Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 5.7 over 26 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
12 of 18 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 19% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.24 dismissals per match across 33 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 26 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 52 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.33 for the level played (Rep Div 1 3 · 2nd grade 1 · 3rd grade 7 · Club 22). 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: 7 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 33 matches — 0.24 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 26 innings at 5.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 23 wickets in 22 matches bowled in (of 33 played) — 1.05 per match at 26.7, economy 4.64, strike rate 34.4.
