Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 12.1 over 38 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
1.5 wides/no-balls per over is gifting runs and momentum. Groove the run-up and release with target bowling — a cone on a 4th-stump line, 30+ balls per session.
Going at 5.55 an over. Tighten the stock ball: hit a consistent length, cut out the 4-ball (short and wide / overpitched on the pads).
Only 0.02 catches per match over 43 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 6 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 18.0.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 20 balls.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 11 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 67 × 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 (Rep Div 1 1 · Club 30). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 31 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 1 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 43 matches — 0.07 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 38 innings at 12.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 33 wickets in 42 matches bowled in (of 43 played) — 0.79 per match at 18.0, economy 5.55, strike rate 19.5.
