Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 12.6 over 174 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 14.9.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.00.
  • ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 22 run outs.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 34 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 64 × 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 (2nd grade 3 · 3rd grade 4 · Club 17 · 4th grade 14). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 38 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 67 catches + 22 run outs (18 direct, 4 assisted) in 270 matches — 0.33 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 174 innings at 12.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
270 wickets in 256 matches bowled in (of 270 played) — 1.05 per match at 14.9, economy 3.00, strike rate 29.7.
