Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 8.9 over 40 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
high
Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball
12 of 22 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 13.7.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.14.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 32 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 63 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.40 for the level played (Rep Div 1 6 · Club 23). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 29 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 24 catches + 5 run outs (2 direct, 3 assisted) in 75 matches — 0.39 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 40 innings at 8.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 149 wickets in 72 matches bowled in (of 75 played) — 2.07 per match at 13.7, economy 3.14, strike rate 26.2.
