Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 11.2 over 25 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
13 of 23 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.
Out for 0 in 32% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.19 dismissals per match across 27 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 20 × 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 21). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 21 matches since 30 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 5 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 27 matches — 0.19 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 25 innings at 11.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 4 wickets from 14.0 overs across 9 matches bowled in (of 27 played) — 0.15 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
