Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 13.1 over 25 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
16 of 16 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 18 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 40 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.59 for the level played (1st grade 1 · 2nd grade 6 · 3rd grade 2). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 9 matches since 30 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 9 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 34 matches — 0.29 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 25 innings at 13.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 43 wickets in 32 matches bowled in (of 34 played) — 1.34 per match at 23.3, economy 3.89, strike rate 35.9.
