Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 10.4 over 24 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
11 of 22 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 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 32 × 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
- ×0.74 for the level played (1st grade 20 · 2nd grade 4 · Club 7). 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: 6 catches + 5 run outs (5 direct, 0 assisted) in 31 matches — 0.35 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 24 innings at 10.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 16 wickets in 24 matches bowled in (of 31 played) — 0.67 per match at 31.6, economy 4.23, strike rate 44.9.
