Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 8.1 over 38 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Out for 0 in 13% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 17.7.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 26 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 50 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.43 for the level played (Rep Div 1 9 · Club 9 · 4th grade 13). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 31 matches since 31 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 9 catches + 3 run outs (2 direct, 1 assisted) in 41 matches — 0.29 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 38 innings at 8.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 41 wickets in 34 matches bowled in (of 41 played) — 1.21 per match at 17.7, economy 3.82, strike rate 27.8.
