Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 12.1 over 38 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
0.9 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.
Only 0.10 catches per match over 42 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.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 20 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 45 × 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 42). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- No match in the last 2 years, so not ranked. The rating shown is from the career.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 4 catches + 6 run outs (6 direct, 0 assisted) in 42 matches — 0.24 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 38 innings at 12.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 22 wickets in 41 matches bowled in (of 42 played) — 0.54 per match at 18.6, economy 3.94, strike rate 28.4.
