Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 12.7 over 30 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
13 of 25 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.
Out for 0 in 27% 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 21 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling not rated (weight redistributed). Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.50 for the level played (State competition 2 · Rep Div 1 5 · Club 23). 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: 4 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 30 matches — 0.17 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 30 innings at 12.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 16 wickets from 86.0 overs across 23 matches bowled in (of 30 played) — 0.70 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
