Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 6.4 over 34 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Only 0.11 catches per match over 57 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 12% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.10.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 6 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 50 × 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 (National competition 8 · 1st grade 2 · Rep Div 1 20 · 2nd grade 1 · 3rd grade 2 · Club 7 · 4th grade 17). 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: 6 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 57 matches — 0.11 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 34 innings at 6.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 64 wickets in 56 matches bowled in (of 57 played) — 1.14 per match at 18.8, economy 3.10, strike rate 36.4.
