Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 9.3 over 54 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 11% 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 27 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 47 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.33 for the level played (Rep Div 1 6 · Rep Div 2 4 · Club 61). 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: 21 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 71 matches — 0.31 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 54 innings at 9.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 51 wickets in 62 matches bowled in (of 71 played) — 0.82 per match at 25.8, economy 3.91, strike rate 39.7.
