Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 8.7 over 43 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 14% 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.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 22 balls.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 23 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 68 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.34 for the level played (Rep Div 1 2 · Club 24). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 26 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 9 catches + 5 run outs (2 direct, 3 assisted) in 43 matches — 0.33 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 43 innings at 8.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 31 wickets in 43 matches — 0.72 per match at 12.7, economy 3.49, strike rate 21.9.
