Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 14.4 over 45 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 22% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 25 × 40% · Batting 42 × 30% · Bowling 59 × 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 25). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 25 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 12 catches + 3 run outs (1 direct, 2 assisted) in 46 matches — 0.33 per match.
- Batting
- 562 runs in 45 innings, adjusted average 14.4, strike rate 58.6. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 18 wickets in 22 matches bowled in (of 46 played) — 0.82 per match at 20.8, economy 4.67, strike rate 26.8.
