Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 9.9 over 16 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Out for 0 in 25% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Economy of 3.57 is excellent but a wicket every 64 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
0.24 dismissals per match across 21 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 11 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 24 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.74 for the level played (1st grade 5 · Rep Div 1 14 · Club 2). 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: 4 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 21 matches — 0.19 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 16 innings at 9.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 8 wickets in 17 matches bowled in (of 21 played) — 0.47 per match at 38.4, economy 3.57, strike rate 64.5.
