Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 9.0 over 63 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 18% 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 10 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 46 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.50 for the level played (1st grade 6 · 2nd grade 41 · 3rd grade 16 · Club 17). 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: 19 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 80 matches — 0.25 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 63 innings at 9.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 101 wickets in 75 matches bowled in (of 80 played) — 1.35 per match at 25.2, economy 4.66, strike rate 32.4.
