Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 57.1 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Only 0.13 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 10% 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 14 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 57 × 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 (State competition 1 · Club 14). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 15 matches since 29 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 2 catches + 2 run outs (0 direct, 2 assisted) in 23 matches — 0.17 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 19 innings at 16.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 12 wickets in 21 matches bowled in (of 23 played) — 0.57 per match at 17.4, economy 3.49, strike rate 29.9.
