Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 6.8 over 22 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 32% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.57 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 12.5.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 19 balls.
- ✓ Safe hands — 26 catches in 46 matches (0.57 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 68 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 73 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.29 for the level played (4th grade 30). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 30 matches since 28 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 26 catches + 2 run outs (1 direct, 1 assisted) in 46 matches — 0.61 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 22 innings at 6.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 85 wickets in 43 matches bowled in (of 46 played) — 1.98 per match at 12.5, economy 3.99, strike rate 18.7.
