Critical recommendations
0.9 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 6.38 an over. Tighten the stock ball: hit a consistent length, cut out the 4-ball (short and wide / overpitched on the pads).
Only 3 batting innings imported — import more of this player's matches before treating these findings as conclusive.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 0 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 15 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.66 for the level played (1st grade 2 · 2nd grade 2 · 3rd grade 1). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 5 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 0 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 5 matches — 0.00 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 3 innings at 14.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 2 wickets in 5 matches — 0.40 per match at 67.0, economy 6.38, strike rate 63.0.
