Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 13.8 over 42 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 12% 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 49 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 37 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.57 for the level played (State competition 3 · Rep Div 1 18 · Club 18). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 39 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 18 catches + 6 run outs (3 direct, 3 assisted) in 60 matches — 0.40 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 42 innings at 13.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 34 wickets in 49 matches bowled in (of 60 played) — 0.69 per match at 24.5, economy 4.37, strike rate 33.6.
