Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 12.5 over 54 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

0.42 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.

Strengths

  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 14.5.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.70.
  • ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 24 balls.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 30 catches in 72 matches (0.42 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 29 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 66 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.48 for the level played (Rep Div 1 13 · Club 21). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 34 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 29 catches + 5 run outs (1 direct, 4 assisted) in 72 matches — 0.47 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 54 innings at 12.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
83 wickets in 69 matches bowled in (of 72 played) — 1.20 per match at 14.5, economy 3.70, strike rate 23.5.
