Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 8.4 over 12 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
1.6 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 7.46 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 17% 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 0 × 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 14). 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: 3 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 14 matches — 0.29 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 12 innings at 8.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 4 wickets from 24.0 overs across 10 matches bowled in (of 14 played) — 0.40 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
