Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 7.2 over 38 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Only 0.11 catches per match over 74 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 16% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Economy of 3.56 is excellent but a wicket every 40 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.56.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 0 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 39 × 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 (3rd grade 1 · 4th grade 9). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 10 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 7 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 74 matches — 0.11 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 38 innings at 7.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 56 wickets in 68 matches bowled in (of 74 played) — 0.82 per match at 24.1, economy 3.56, strike rate 40.5.
