Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 3.0 over 43 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
15 of 30 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 33% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Economy of 2.67 is excellent but a wicket every 51 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
0.16 dismissals per match across 62 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.67.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 17 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 42 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.78 for the level played (1st grade 56 · 2nd grade 5 · 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: 10 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 62 matches — 0.16 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 43 innings at 3.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 108 wickets in 62 matches — 1.74 per match at 22.6, economy 2.67, strike rate 50.7.
