Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 13.8 over 24 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
high
Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball
9 of 17 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 12 catches in 32 matches (0.38 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 34 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 60 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.57 for the level played (Rep Div 1 9 · 3rd grade 11 · 4th grade 1). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 21 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 12 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 32 matches — 0.44 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 24 innings at 13.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 26 wickets in 26 matches bowled in (of 32 played) — 1.00 per match at 20.8, economy 4.79, strike rate 26.0.
