Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball
7 of 14 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.
Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 39 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 19 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.57 for the level played (1st grade 2 · Rep Div 1 10 · Club 13). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- No match in the last 2 years, so not ranked. The rating shown is from the career.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 5 catches + 3 run outs (3 direct, 0 assisted) in 25 matches — 0.32 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 23 innings at 17.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 7 wickets in 20 matches bowled in (of 25 played) — 0.35 per match at 47.4, economy 4.61, strike rate 61.7.
