Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 3.4 over 28 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
13 of 18 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.
Out for 0 in 29% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.24 dismissals per match across 75 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.59.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 16 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 52 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.50 for the level played (2nd grade 40 · 3rd grade 34 · 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: 17 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 75 matches — 0.24 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 28 innings at 3.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 87 wickets in 72 matches bowled in (of 75 played) — 1.21 per match at 21.0, economy 3.59, strike rate 35.1.
