Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 12.0 over 50 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 14% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.75.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 25 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 58 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.61 for the level played (National competition 11 · State competition 59 · 1st grade 11 · Rep Div 1 21 · Club 33). 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: 36 catches + 4 run outs (4 direct, 0 assisted) in 135 matches — 0.30 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 50 innings at 12.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 166 wickets in 118 matches bowled in (of 135 played) — 1.41 per match at 20.0, economy 3.75, strike rate 32.1.
