Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 14.9 over 60 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 18% 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 14.0.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.20.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 20 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 58 × 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 26). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 26 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 19 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 60 matches — 0.33 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 60 innings at 14.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 96 wickets in 59 matches bowled in (of 60 played) — 1.63 per match at 14.0, economy 3.20, strike rate 26.2.
