Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 10.4 over 47 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Out for 0 in 19% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Economy of 3.87 is excellent but a wicket every 43 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 43 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 44 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.42 for the level played (3rd grade 24). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 24 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 16 catches + 3 run outs (1 direct, 2 assisted) in 53 matches — 0.36 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 47 innings at 10.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 35 wickets in 40 matches bowled in (of 53 played) — 0.88 per match at 27.9, economy 3.87, strike rate 43.2.
