Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 7.3 over 17 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
1.1 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.
Only 0.00 catches per match over 26 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 24% 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 0 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling not rated (weight redistributed). 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 1). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 1 match since 1 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 0 catches + 3 run outs (1 direct, 2 assisted) in 26 matches — 0.12 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 17 innings at 7.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 10 wickets from 48.0 overs across 20 matches bowled in (of 26 played) — 0.50 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
