Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 5.2 over 45 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
19 of 38 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.
1.6 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.
Going at 5.93 an over. Tighten the stock ball: hit a consistent length, cut out the 4-ball (short and wide / overpitched on the pads).
Only 0.05 catches per match over 65 matches. Fielding is the first thing selectors compare when batting/bowling are close — make catching the priority: 30 high balls + 30 flat catches per session, and ask to field in the ring/slips where chances come.
Out for 0 in 33% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 13 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 33 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.48 for the level played (Rep Div 1 14 · 2nd grade 18 · Club 12). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 44 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 3 catches + 4 run outs (2 direct, 2 assisted) in 65 matches — 0.11 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 45 innings at 5.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 30 wickets in 53 matches bowled in (of 65 played) — 0.57 per match at 25.0, economy 5.93, strike rate 25.3.
