Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 2.2 over 23 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
1.0 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 0.04 catches per match over 28 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 26% 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 55 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.43 for the level played (Rep Div 1 4 · Club 24). 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: 1 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 28 matches — 0.07 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 23 innings at 2.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 18 wickets in 28 matches — 0.64 per match at 18.6, economy 4.24, strike rate 26.3.
