Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 13.4 over 18 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Out for 0 in 11% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
71% of runs come in boundaries yet the strike rate is modest — between boundaries the scoreboard stalls. Add strike rotation to keep bowlers from settling.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 13.8.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 20 balls.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 37 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 65 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.52 for the level played (1st grade 6 · Rep Div 1 4 · Club 14). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 24 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 6 catches + 4 run outs (2 direct, 2 assisted) in 27 matches — 0.37 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 18 innings at 13.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 21 wickets in 24 matches bowled in (of 27 played) — 0.88 per match at 13.8, economy 4.08, strike rate 20.3.
