Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 6.6 over 22 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
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.
0.63 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 17.1.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.85.
- ✓ Safe hands — 22 catches in 35 matches (0.63 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 45 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 63 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.37 for the level played (2nd grade 2 · 3rd grade 11 · 4th grade 12). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 25 matches since 1 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 22 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 35 matches — 0.63 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 22 innings at 6.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 56 wickets in 34 matches bowled in (of 35 played) — 1.65 per match at 17.1, economy 2.85, strike rate 36.1.
