Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 6.1 over 11 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
1.0 wides/no-balls per over is gifting runs and momentum. Groove the run-up and release with target bowling — a cone on a 4th-stump line, 30+ balls per session.
Out for 0 in 18% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.18 dismissals per match across 17 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 14 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 55 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.49 for the level played (Rep Div 1 10 · Club 6 · 4th grade 1). 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: 3 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 17 matches — 0.18 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 11 innings at 6.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 15 wickets in 16 matches bowled in (of 17 played) — 0.94 per match at 22.0, economy 4.45, strike rate 29.7.
