Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 10.2 over 39 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 18% 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 3.49.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 23 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 47 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.65 for the level played (Rep Div 1 34 · 2nd grade 3 · 3rd grade 5 · Club 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: 12 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 45 matches — 0.29 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 39 innings at 10.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 46 wickets in 40 matches bowled in (of 45 played) — 1.15 per match at 21.1, economy 3.49, strike rate 36.3.
