Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 8.7 over 18 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 17% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 28 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 16 × 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 18). 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: 3 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 18 matches — 0.28 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 18 innings at 8.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 5 wickets in 18 matches — 0.28 per match at 57.4, economy 5.50, strike rate 62.6.
