Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 10.8 over 13 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 17.9.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 24 balls.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 27 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 60 × 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 19). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 19 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 6 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 20 matches — 0.30 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 13 innings at 10.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 22 wickets in 19 matches bowled in (of 20 played) — 1.16 per match at 18.0, economy 4.45, strike rate 24.2.
