Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 8.4 over 23 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
10 of 18 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 13% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.20 dismissals per match across 30 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 0 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 51 × 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 12). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 12 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 6 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 30 matches — 0.20 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 23 innings at 8.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 35 wickets in 24 matches bowled in (of 30 played) — 1.46 per match at 18.1, economy 4.15, strike rate 26.2.
