Critical recommendations
highBatting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 7.9 over 42 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
highFielding
Catching return too low for selection
Only 0.10 catches per match over 86 matches. Fielding is the first thing selectors compare when batting/bowling are close — make catching the priority: 30 high balls + 30 flat catches per session, and ask to field in the ring/slips where chances come.
mediumBatting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 21% 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 29 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 65 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.62 for the level played (Rep Div 1 24 · 2nd grade 6 · 3rd grade 1 · Club 10). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 41 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 9 catches + 7 run outs (4 direct, 3 assisted) in 86 matches — 0.19 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 42 innings at 7.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
69 wickets in 81 matches bowled in (of 86 played) — 0.85 per match at 19.9, economy 4.33, strike rate 27.6.
