Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 10.4 over 58 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 10% 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 15.0.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.31.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 37 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 58 × 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 25). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 25 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 17 catches + 3 run outs (2 direct, 1 assisted) in 71 matches — 0.28 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 58 innings at 10.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 101 wickets in 67 matches bowled in (of 71 played) — 1.51 per match at 15.0, economy 3.31, strike rate 27.2.
