Critical recommendations

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.

medium Fielding
Low overall fielding impact

0.18 dismissals per match across 120 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.

Strengths

  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 13.3.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.70.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 11 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 62 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.41 for the level played (3rd grade 23 · 4th grade 1). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 24 matches since 28 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 21 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 120 matches — 0.17 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 76 innings at 15.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
243 wickets in 114 matches bowled in (of 120 played) — 2.13 per match at 13.3, economy 2.70, strike rate 29.7.
