Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 13.3 over 56 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
26 of 49 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 0.12 catches per match over 57 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.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 17 × 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
- ×0.30 for the level played (Club 40). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 40 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 7 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 57 matches — 0.14 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 56 innings at 13.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 5 wickets from 40.3 overs across 16 matches bowled in (of 57 played) — 0.09 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
