Critical recommendations
Economy of 2.72 is excellent but a wicket every 86 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
Only 2 batting innings imported — import more of this player's matches before treating these findings as conclusive.
Bowling average (39.0) beats batting average (32.0) — selection case is as a bowling all-rounder; protect bowling workload first.
Strengths
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 32.0.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.72.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 0 × 40% · Batting 67 × 30% · Bowling 44 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.48 for the level played (2nd grade 1 · 3rd 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: 0 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 2 matches — 0.00 per match.
- Batting
- 64 runs in 2 innings, adjusted average 32.0. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 3 wickets in 2 matches — 1.50 per match at 39.0, economy 2.72, strike rate 86.0.
