Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 7.2 over 26 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 15% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 15.3.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.66.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 36 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 54 × 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 16 · Club 21). 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: 7 catches + 4 run outs (4 direct, 0 assisted) in 37 matches — 0.30 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 26 innings at 7.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 26 wickets in 36 matches bowled in (of 37 played) — 0.72 per match at 15.3, economy 2.66, strike rate 34.4.
