Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 14.2 over 46 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
0.94 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 50 catches in 53 matches (0.94 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- ✓ Sharp glovework — 15 stumpings.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 79 × 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
- ×0.55 for the level played (1st grade 7 · Rep Div 1 28 · 3rd grade 1 · Club 16 · 4th grade 1). 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
- Keeping: 40 catches + 15 stumpings + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 53 matches — 1.08 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 46 innings at 14.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 8 wickets from 22.0 overs across 7 matches bowled in (of 53 played) — 0.15 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
