Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 11.9 over 47 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
1.1 wides/no-balls per over is gifting runs and momentum. Groove the run-up and release with target bowling — a cone on a 4th-stump line, 30+ balls per session.
Going at 5.70 an over. Tighten the stock ball: hit a consistent length, cut out the 4-ball (short and wide / overpitched on the pads).
Out for 0 in 13% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 23 balls.
- ✓ Safe hands — 19 catches in 51 matches (0.37 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 25 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 61 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.48 for the level played (Rep Div 1 11 · Club 19). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 30 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 19 catches + 6 run outs (2 direct, 4 assisted) in 51 matches — 0.49 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 47 innings at 12.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 23 wickets in 32 matches bowled in (of 51 played) — 0.72 per match at 22.0, economy 5.70, strike rate 23.1.
