Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 14.9 over 101 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
high
Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball
41 of 76 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.
info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.52 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 59 catches in 113 matches (0.52 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 19 run outs.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 58 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 28 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.32 for the level played (Rep Div 2 10 · Club 32). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 42 matches since 30 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 51 catches + 19 run outs (10 direct, 9 assisted) in 113 matches — 0.62 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 101 innings at 15.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 49 wickets in 104 matches bowled in (of 113 played) — 0.47 per match at 26.4, economy 4.11, strike rate 38.5.
