Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 10.6 over 20 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Economy of 2.98 is excellent but a wicket every 44 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
0.22 dismissals per match across 27 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.98.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 12 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 53 × 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 (2nd grade 3 · 3rd grade 6 · Club 18). 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: 6 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 27 matches — 0.22 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 20 innings at 10.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 38 wickets in 26 matches bowled in (of 27 played) — 1.46 per match at 22.1, economy 2.98, strike rate 44.4.
