Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 6.1 over 90 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

medium Bowling
Tight but not threatening

Economy of 3.23 is excellent but a wicket every 41 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

medium Fielding
Low overall fielding impact

0.17 dismissals per match across 231 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.

Strengths

  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.23.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 19 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 51 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.80 for the level played (National competition 25 · 1st grade 151 · Rep Div 1 12 · 2nd grade 18 · 3rd grade 11 · Club 13 · 4th grade 1). 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: 36 catches + 3 run outs (3 direct, 0 assisted) in 231 matches — 0.17 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 90 innings at 6.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
339 wickets in 218 matches bowled in (of 231 played) — 1.56 per match at 21.9, economy 3.23, strike rate 40.7.
