Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 12.9 over 56 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 12% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

medium Fielding
Keeping dismissal rate below par

0.37 keeping dismissals (WK catches + stumpings) per match. Work standing-up takes and leg-side stumpings — the fastest way for a keeper to add value.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

0.66 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.

Strengths

  • ✓ Safe hands — 44 catches in 67 matches (0.66 per match), a genuine selection asset.
  • ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 19 run outs.
  • ✓ Sharp glovework — 8 stumpings.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 36 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 38 × 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 16). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 16 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 27 catches + 19 run outs (4 direct, 15 assisted) in 67 matches — 0.69 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 56 innings at 12.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
34 wickets in 43 matches bowled in (of 67 played) — 0.79 per match at 16.9, economy 3.05, strike rate 33.2.
