Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 8.8 over 17 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Only 0.04 catches per match over 23 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 18% 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 0 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 43 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.41 for the level played (Rep Div 1 1 · 3rd grade 1 · 4th grade 3). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 5 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 1 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 23 matches — 0.04 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 17 innings at 8.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 37 wickets in 23 matches — 1.61 per match at 18.4, economy 3.86, strike rate 28.6.
