Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 12.5 over 33 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
high
Bowling
Economy under pressure
Going at 6.63 an over. Tighten the stock ball: hit a consistent length, cut out the 4-ball (short and wide / overpitched on the pads).
Strengths
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 24 balls.
- ✓ Safe hands — 16 catches in 44 matches (0.36 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 35 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 52 × 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 34). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 34 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 16 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 44 matches — 0.39 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 33 innings at 12.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 45 wickets in 37 matches bowled in (of 44 played) — 1.22 per match at 26.7, economy 6.63, strike rate 24.2.
