Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 11.9 over 91 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 16% 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 3.65.
- ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 11 run outs.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 39 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 53 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.39 for the level played (Rep Div 1 42 · Club 84). 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: 41 catches + 11 run outs (11 direct, 0 assisted) in 126 matches — 0.41 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 91 innings at 11.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 115 wickets in 114 matches bowled in (of 126 played) — 1.01 per match at 21.3, economy 3.65, strike rate 35.0.
