Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 6.5 over 59 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 17% 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
0.22 dismissals per match across 102 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.36.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 18 × 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
- ×0.56 for the level played (Rep Div 1 31 · Rep Div 2 8 · Club 63). 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: 18 catches + 3 run outs (3 direct, 0 assisted) in 102 matches — 0.21 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 59 innings at 6.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 68 wickets in 93 matches bowled in (of 102 played) — 0.73 per match at 20.7, economy 3.36, strike rate 36.9.
