Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 14.8 over 18 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Strengths
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 21 balls.
- ✓ Safe hands — 9 catches in 23 matches (0.39 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 34 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 59 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.30 for the level played (Club 20). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 20 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 9 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 23 matches — 0.39 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 18 innings at 14.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 29 wickets in 21 matches bowled in (of 23 played) — 1.38 per match at 19.0, economy 5.37, strike rate 21.2.
