Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 10.2 over 26 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
13 of 18 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.
Only 0.02 catches per match over 50 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 19% 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 7 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 42 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.34 for the level played (Rep Div 1 7 · 3rd grade 4 · Club 29). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 40 matches since 31 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 1 catches + 3 run outs (2 direct, 1 assisted) in 50 matches — 0.08 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 26 innings at 10.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 29 wickets in 46 matches bowled in (of 50 played) — 0.63 per match at 26.5, economy 5.38, strike rate 29.5.
