Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 4.5 over 6 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 16.6.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 19 balls.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 10 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 59 × 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 8). 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: 1 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 8 matches — 0.12 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 6 innings at 4.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 17 wickets in 7 matches bowled in (of 8 played) — 2.43 per match at 16.6, economy 5.13, strike rate 19.4.
