Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 14.0 over 155 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

medium Fielding
Low overall fielding impact

0.22 dismissals per match across 195 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.

Strengths

  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.24.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 19 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 53 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.45 for the level played (National competition 3 · 1st grade 54 · 2nd grade 17 · Club 121). 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: 35 catches + 6 run outs (5 direct, 1 assisted) in 195 matches — 0.21 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 155 innings at 14.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
242 wickets in 163 matches bowled in (of 195 played) — 1.48 per match at 20.4, economy 3.24, strike rate 37.9.
