Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 14.5 over 31 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 23% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.08.
- ✓ Safe hands — 14 catches in 40 matches (0.35 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 30 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 45 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.29 for the level played (Rep Div 1 4 · Club 28 · 5th grade and below 8). 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: 11 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 40 matches — 0.30 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 31 innings at 14.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 34 wickets in 33 matches bowled in (of 40 played) — 1.03 per match at 19.9, economy 3.08, strike rate 38.8.
