Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 11.9 over 61 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 23% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
medium
Fielding
Low overall fielding impact
0.21 dismissals per match across 68 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 4 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 29 × 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 (2nd grade 1 · 3rd grade 10 · Club 8). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 19 matches since 28 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 13 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 68 matches — 0.21 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 61 innings at 11.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 40 wickets in 58 matches bowled in (of 68 played) — 0.69 per match at 39.6, economy 4.62, strike rate 51.5.
