Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 12.2 over 49 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
20 of 36 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.
Only 0.10 catches per match over 50 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.
Out for 0 in 14% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.72.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 15 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 55 × 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 27). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 27 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 5 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 50 matches — 0.12 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 49 innings at 12.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 49 wickets in 42 matches bowled in (of 50 played) — 1.17 per match at 20.9, economy 3.72, strike rate 33.7.
