Critical recommendations
high
Fielding
Catching return too low for selection
Only 0.10 catches per match over 48 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.
Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 21 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 43 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.34 for the level played (Rep Div 1 7 · 3rd grade 4 · Club 21 · 4th grade 16). 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: 5 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 48 matches — 0.15 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 38 innings at 16.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 33 wickets in 34 matches bowled in (of 48 played) — 0.97 per match at 22.8, economy 4.15, strike rate 32.9.
