Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 11.2 over 37 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 16% 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 16.1.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 35 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 65 × 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 23). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 23 matches since 1 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 14 catches + 5 run outs (5 direct, 0 assisted) in 43 matches — 0.44 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 37 innings at 11.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
64 wickets in 43 matches — 1.49 per match at 16.1, economy 3.83, strike rate 25.2.
