Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 11.8 over 38 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
0.8 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
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 11.8.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.50.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 20 balls.
- ✓ Safe hands — 17 catches in 46 matches (0.37 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 32 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 59 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.67 for the level played (Rep Div 1 24 · Club 22). 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: 15 catches + 4 run outs (4 direct, 0 assisted) in 46 matches — 0.41 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 38 innings at 11.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 29 wickets in 29 matches bowled in (of 46 played) — 1.00 per match at 11.8, economy 3.50, strike rate 20.2.
