Critical recommendations
10 of 20 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.
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.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 41 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 58 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.31 for the level played (State competition 1 · Rep Div 1 3 · Club 27). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 31 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 9 catches + 7 run outs (2 direct, 5 assisted) in 36 matches — 0.44 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 30 innings at 15.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 28 wickets in 34 matches bowled in (of 36 played) — 0.82 per match at 18.8, economy 4.84, strike rate 23.3.
