Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 9.4 over 84 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
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 14.6.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.49.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 25 balls.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 29 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 62 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.45 for the level played (State competition 4 · 1st grade 1 · Rep Div 1 11 · Club 105). 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: 40 catches + 5 run outs (5 direct, 0 assisted) in 121 matches — 0.37 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 84 innings at 9.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 172 wickets in 117 matches bowled in (of 121 played) — 1.47 per match at 14.6, economy 3.49, strike rate 25.0.
