Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 7.1 over 50 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
18 of 32 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 14% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Economy of 3.27 is excellent but a wicket every 43 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.27.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 20 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 48 × 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 (2nd grade 2 · Club 18 · 4th grade 15 · 5th grade and below 30). 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: 15 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 65 matches — 0.25 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 50 innings at 7.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 66 wickets in 59 matches bowled in (of 65 played) — 1.12 per match at 23.6, economy 3.27, strike rate 43.3.
