Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 14.6 over 15 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Bowling
Tight but not threatening
Economy of 3.78 is excellent but a wicket every 43 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.78.
- ✓ Safe hands — 7 catches in 20 matches (0.35 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 54 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 51 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.32 for the level played (1st grade 1 · Club 19). 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 + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 20 matches — 0.35 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 15 innings at 14.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 27 wickets in 18 matches bowled in (of 20 played) — 1.50 per match at 27.4, economy 3.78, strike rate 43.4.
