Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 9.4 over 38 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
13 of 21 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.
1.1 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.
Out for 0 in 13% 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 11 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 25 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.72 for the level played (1st grade 35 · Club 29). 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: 8 catches + 3 run outs (3 direct, 0 assisted) in 64 matches — 0.17 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 38 innings at 9.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 18 wickets in 32 matches bowled in (of 64 played) — 0.28 per match at 15.3, economy 4.70, strike rate 19.6.
