Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 13.1 over 32 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 16.0.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.10.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 33 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 69 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.23 for the level played (Club 5 · 5th grade and below 13). 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: 12 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 44 matches — 0.27 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 32 innings at 13.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 61 wickets in 36 matches bowled in (of 44 played) — 1.69 per match at 16.0, economy 3.10, strike rate 30.9.
