Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 11.2 over 25 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
7 of 14 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 0.09 catches per match over 35 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 20% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Economy of 3.71 is excellent but a wicket every 48 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.71.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 6 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 41 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.44 for the level played (1st grade 1 · Rep Div 1 10 · 3rd grade 14 · 4th grade 10). 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: 3 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 35 matches — 0.09 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 25 innings at 11.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 37 wickets in 33 matches bowled in (of 35 played) — 1.12 per match at 29.7, economy 3.71, strike rate 48.0.
