Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 12.8 over 30 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
high
Bowling
Economy under pressure
Going at 5.63 an over. Tighten the stock ball: hit a consistent length, cut out the 4-ball (short and wide / overpitched on the pads).
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 13.6.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 14 balls.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 19 × 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
- ×0.30 for the level played (Club 32). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 32 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 12 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 41 matches — 0.29 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 30 innings at 12.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 80 wickets in 40 matches bowled in (of 41 played) — 2.00 per match at 13.6, economy 5.63, strike rate 14.5.
