Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 4.6 over 25 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
11 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.
1.4 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 0.04 catches per match over 26 matches. Fielding is the first thing selectors compare when batting/bowling are close — make catching the priority: 30 high balls + 30 flat catches per session, and ask to field in the ring/slips where chances come.
Out for 0 in 20% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 16 × 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
- ×0.30 for the level played (Club 26). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 26 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 0 catches + 4 run outs (3 direct, 1 assisted) in 26 matches — 0.15 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 25 innings at 4.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 8 wickets in 25 matches bowled in (of 26 played) — 0.32 per match at 39.9, economy 6.38, strike rate 37.5.
