Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 7.6 over 32 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.
0.8 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.
Out for 0 in 25% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.21 keeping dismissals (WK catches + stumpings) per match. Work standing-up takes and leg-side stumpings — the fastest way for a keeper to add value.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 23 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 29 × 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 (Club 26). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 26 matches since 30 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Keeping: 4 catches + 3 stumpings + 3 run outs (1 direct, 2 assisted) in 33 matches — 0.30 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 32 innings at 7.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 13 wickets in 33 matches — 0.39 per match at 23.3, economy 4.19, strike rate 33.4.
