Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 5.2 over 27 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
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.31.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 18 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 50 × 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 (Rep Div 1 16 · 3rd grade 8 · Club 2 · 4th grade 22). 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: 12 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 48 matches — 0.27 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 27 innings at 5.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 55 wickets in 45 matches bowled in (of 48 played) — 1.22 per match at 20.0, economy 3.31, strike rate 36.2.
