Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 6.9 over 16 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Out for 0 in 31% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
1.62 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 34 catches in 21 matches (1.62 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- ✓ Sharp glovework — 9 stumpings.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 91 × 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
- ×0.62 for the level played (1st grade 3 · 2nd grade 10 · 3rd grade 7 · 4th grade 1). 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
- Keeping: 28 catches + 9 stumpings + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 21 matches — 1.86 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 16 innings at 6.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
