Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 28% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 8 catches in 23 matches (0.35 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 17 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling not rated (weight redistributed). 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
- No match in the last 2 years, so not ranked. The rating shown is from the career.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 8 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 23 matches — 0.39 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 25 innings at 21.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 0 wickets from 3.0 overs across 1 matches bowled in (of 23 played) — 0.00 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
