Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 8.0 over 34 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 29% 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 41 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 44 × 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 52). 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: 12 catches + 5 run outs (5 direct, 0 assisted) in 52 matches — 0.33 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 34 innings at 8.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 52 wickets in 48 matches bowled in (of 52 played) — 1.08 per match at 28.2, economy 4.10, strike rate 41.3.
