Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 14.7 over 28 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Out for 0 in 18% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.23 dismissals per match across 30 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 26 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 49 × 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 14). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 14 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 5 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 30 matches — 0.23 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 28 innings at 14.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 17 wickets in 25 matches bowled in (of 30 played) — 0.68 per match at 31.2, economy 4.64, strike rate 40.4.
