Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 13.7 over 60 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Out for 0 in 12% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.33 keeping dismissals (WK catches + stumpings) per match. Work standing-up takes and leg-side stumpings — the fastest way for a keeper to add value.
0.43 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 26 catches in 60 matches (0.43 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 30 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling not rated (weight redistributed). 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 34 · 4th grade 1). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 35 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Keeping: 19 catches + 1 stumpings + 7 run outs (2 direct, 5 assisted) in 60 matches — 0.45 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 60 innings at 13.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 0 wickets from 4.0 overs across 1 matches bowled in (of 60 played) — 0.00 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
