Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 7.9 over 32 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
14 of 23 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 0.13 catches per match over 54 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 19% 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 3.58.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 7 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 49 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.27 for the level played (Club 34 · 5th grade and below 20). 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: 7 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 54 matches — 0.13 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 32 innings at 7.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 69 wickets in 49 matches bowled in (of 54 played) — 1.41 per match at 19.3, economy 3.58, strike rate 32.3.
