Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 14.6 over 36 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 11% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 44 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 31 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.43 for the level played (Rep Div 1 9 · Club 33). 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: 13 catches + 5 run outs (5 direct, 0 assisted) in 42 matches — 0.43 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 36 innings at 14.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 11 wickets in 23 matches bowled in (of 42 played) — 0.48 per match at 25.4, economy 4.82, strike rate 31.5.
