Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 14.5 over 47 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 16.8.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.10.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 25 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 57 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.55 for the level played (2nd grade 28 · 3rd grade 31 · 4th grade 3). 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: 18 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 62 matches — 0.31 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 47 innings at 14.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 82 wickets in 45 matches bowled in (of 62 played) — 1.82 per match at 16.8, economy 3.10, strike rate 32.6.
