Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 14.9 over 55 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 16.4.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.45.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 21 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 66 × 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
- Rated on the last 18 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 13 catches + 2 run outs (1 direct, 1 assisted) in 58 matches — 0.26 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 55 innings at 14.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 64 wickets in 54 matches bowled in (of 58 played) — 1.19 per match at 16.4, economy 3.45, strike rate 28.5.
