Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 14.7 over 7 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 7.3.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.91.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 47 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 72 × 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 7). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 7 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 4 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 7 matches — 0.57 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 7 innings at 14.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 9 wickets in 4 matches bowled in (of 7 played) — 1.29 per match at 7.3, economy 2.91, strike rate 15.1.
