Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 12.3 over 38 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
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.
Economy of 3.36 is excellent but a wicket every 40 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
0.17 dismissals per match across 52 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 15 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 48 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.36 for the level played (Rep Div 1 8 · 3rd grade 6 · Club 22 · 4th grade 16). 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
- Outfield: 8 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 52 matches — 0.17 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 38 innings at 12.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 37 wickets in 42 matches bowled in (of 52 played) — 0.88 per match at 22.4, economy 3.36, strike rate 40.1.
