Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 6.0 over 49 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
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 17.4.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.63.
- ✓ Safe hands — 31 catches in 84 matches (0.37 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 34 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 58 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.68 for the level played (National competition 5 · 1st grade 37 · Rep Div 1 12 · 2nd grade 1 · Club 29). 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: 30 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 84 matches — 0.37 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 49 innings at 6.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 116 wickets in 77 matches bowled in (of 84 played) — 1.51 per match at 17.4, economy 3.63, strike rate 28.8.
