Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 13.8 over 36 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 14.9.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.49.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 17 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 57 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.30 for the level played (Club 67). 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: 16 catches + 6 run outs (6 direct, 0 assisted) in 67 matches — 0.33 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 36 innings at 13.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 56 wickets in 65 matches bowled in (of 67 played) — 0.86 per match at 14.9, economy 2.49, strike rate 35.9.
