Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 12.6 over 18 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Going at 7.62 an over. Tighten the stock ball: hit a consistent length, cut out the 4-ball (short and wide / overpitched on the pads).
0.17 dismissals per match across 24 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 13 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 9 × 30%. 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 13). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 13 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 4 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 24 matches — 0.17 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 18 innings at 12.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 19 wickets in 24 matches — 0.79 per match at 30.7, economy 7.62, strike rate 24.2.
