Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 11.6 over 34 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 12% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
medium
Bowling
Tight but not threatening
Economy of 3.96 is excellent but a wicket every 44 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 12 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 55 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.38 for the level played (Rep Div 1 3 · 2nd grade 6 · 3rd grade 3 · Club 22). 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 + 3 run outs (3 direct, 0 assisted) in 34 matches — 0.29 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 34 innings at 11.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 23 wickets in 22 matches bowled in (of 34 played) — 1.05 per match at 29.0, economy 3.96, strike rate 44.0.
